Number 1’s Rules
- On every leg of the race Number 1 will give an assignment. Emma and Ryan can pick how they research it!
- Emma and Ryan will present ONE animal fact they learned from their quest. No googling is allowed. The most interesting, or fascinating fact wins!
- The person with the most points at the end of the competition will win the role of podcast host.
- Emma and Ryan must keep their carbon footprint low. This means: Trains, buses, carpools and hiking are OK. But no air travel is allowed in this race.
The race is on! Emma and Ryan are competing to decide who will get to be the future host of the Earth Rangers podcast. Their first stop, New York City! In the Big Apple Emma is tasked to investigate the secret life of creatures from the city; but what kind of wild animals would want to live in such a bright, loud, and crowded place?
In this episode, Emma presented her first fact: some great turtle trivia! Was it enough? Ryan was able to impress Number 1 with some great bird facts of his own! The two toured New York City, Emma visiting Central Park while Ryan headed straight for the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge. There’s plenty to learn about animals who live around the city, like the Painted Turtle, Musk Turtle, Box Turtle, Piping Plover, Osprey, or American Woodcock!

With much ground to cover, and help from a chance encounter with a certain self-proclaimed “grossologist”, will Emma catch up to Ryan?
Emma’s adventures never end! On today’s trail, she very nearly got lost! But thankfully, she was able to make a new friend who helped her find her way: Ms. Mallory! Thanks to Ms. Mallory’s help, Emma learned a lot about various creepy crawlies. With this information, she was able to impress Number 1 with her super-duper millipede facts.

This season was so cool! I think my favorite episode is California Dreaming.
Also, have you heard of the coywolf? It’s a hybrid species between wolf and coyote. The advantages of the coywolf include: faster legs, more muscle and larger jaws. The adaptations of the coywolf have evolved over time, but scientists are still learning about them today.
My favorite episode of Quest for the Best is the Petrified Forest! Stay adventurous, Earth Rangers!
Ryan is so mean!
Emma Emma Emma Emma is the best and the only person who can do the earthrager
Demoted?!,Ryan?!
Oh and also, on the episode Big City Lights, did Ryan read from Wikipedia on the last hawk fact? I am surprised Number 1 didn’t notice that!!
Wild, where is so interesting?I think it’s actually educational because like it teaches you stuff and even not has like jokes and things and all it still is educational.
Go Emma go Emma go Emma you can do it
Emma you are the best
Emma you are the best.Rinn is the werst
