Map Info

There's something going on down at the watering hole. We are the Rangers is a community made, charity minecraft map where rangers battle mobs against the clock to save wildlife from extinction.

Join a team of elite rangers and journey across the African savannah. This 100% vanilla map contains new animals such as elephants, giraffe and even rhinos.

Track down the poachers before they track down the endangered wildlife and prove you have what it takes to complete a range of special quests in the heart of Africa.

Now updated for Minecraft 1.9.

Features
  • New African wildlife.
  • Fast travel mini map.
  • Poacher mobs.
  • Pangolins! (google them).
  • Powered by @dragnoz.

About

This map was built by over 116 people to help people learn through Minecraft. It was designed to raise awareness of the crisis that faces our wildlife and increase awareness around the world of poaching and the terrible situation if we don't work together to prevent it.

Wildlife around the world is facing unparalleled pressure from poachers and the illegal wildlife trade. It’s estimated that Elephants are being killed at a rate of 35,000 per year – equivalent to 96 per day. We wanted to make sure that everyone knows how bad the situation is, so we made this Minecraft map.

no instructions, sounds like an interesting map. I went to the lodge, found some food, rabbits foot, and a stick; could not get one of the cameras (I think that is what they are) from the lodge, went outside, found 2 hippos, not much happening with them, not sure what I should be doing????

Go down the path, near where the vultures are circling

SpeedyNitro I have 4 things.
1. I lost the Lion badge and can't get it back
2. When I anylized the DNA I didn't get the Rhino badge, where do I get it?
3. Where is the Poachers Base? Is it the one with the boat? If so then it didn't finish the quest for me.
4. I can't finish the "Find Killimanjaro" Quest, where do I go to finish it?

Minecraft Player Was hoping to try this map today - loved the video trailer - but for some reason my character's movement is very glitchy. I tried on both 1.9 and 1.9.4 (no mods) and every time shortly after pressing W my character would randomly start to sprint and run extremly fast. I don't know what causes this, it has never happend before and my other local worlds are still working fine. (We_Are_The_Ran ger_Map_MC1.9V2 )

Al2k You should check out version 1.9. What you mentioned below has been incorporated. Hopefully it will be up on Minecraft maps shortly.

Quoting Voltolos:
Well, I quite liked the map but it could be way better in my opinion. For example you have lions in your map but they are basicly sheep. Actually giraffes are sheep in this map but the lions could also be. And yeah the big map is great but total useless if you use only 10% in the center and in the other 90% you can't even find a single animal. And i didn't like that you could find everything you needed to find just by following a path. Why does a path from a ranger tower lead to poacher camp?

ShadowFlame1 I downloaded this map and I have to say that you guys are the best map makers I have found on this website and here are my reasons that I can say for just this one map of you'res
1. Its a charity map for raising awareness of a real life situation
2. The textures are incredible
3. The Map wasn't to easy like most adventure maps, it had challenges and you weren't always directly in front of the next challenge, you gave us the general direction and left us too it.
4. You let us move around the map, we could go literally anywhere anytime, which is great because not just a strict boring pathway like most maps
5. There were a lot of challenges, like a lot! which means I could just play for longer, I sat down with food and drinks and played for hours just slowly making my way through the map and constantly taking selfies with the animals
There were my reasons, Thank you for putting a lot of effort, time and thought in to the Amazing map I have played.

Myst Xtreme There is an amazing amount of detail in this map! I am highly impressed by the work that went into this, even if I did mess up the order.

Al2ka Quoting Hunter:
When the map loads, I spawn in water. Then there's only a few islands?


Hi Hunter, make sure you are playing it in 1.8.8 - if you have any problems, delete the map and unzip a brand new copy, switch to 1.8.8 and you'll be fine.

Valerie Hey, I really love the map so far, but I've got 1 problem: when I go into the minimap and teleport somewhere, my dogs don't come with me, they stay inside the minimap and I only see them when I'm in the minimap as well. Can I solve this somehow?

Mel Quoting LittleGreenmousy:
I absolutely loved playing this game so far until this evening! The map is awesome, animals are SO cool, game play is challenging but not so much to drive you bonkers. Sadly, I only had 1 photo left to find the finish your map, went around the mountains between the starting tower and the Lab tower and fell into a sand hole that is more than 2 blocks high... can't get out and can't change game mode to just fly out of the hole! To finish the game now I would have to literally start all over. Not a happy camper at the moment. :(

Actually that's an easy solve and a good trick for any adventure map player to know: All you have to do is go into options, open the game to Lan, and set cheats to allow. Then you can change your gamemode and fly outta that dumb hole. Boom, solved :D

I've reached the village where "Masego" is sick and I need to collect blue flowers for him. I have gotten about 10 or so but nothing happened! Please help!


You have to go back to his hut. where i'm stuck at is when you put the lead to the fence, I don't know what to do at that point.

The animals looked great and I loved the way the poachers were tied up and floated away.

Habbledobble I love the idea and plot for the map! So cool, with the texture pack--elephants , giraffes, the lot--and it's such a good idea to
teach people about the importance of ecology and saving the animals, etc. Thanks, I loved it. 10/10.

I think I did the same, did you parkour out? if so then you need to go round the other side of the mountain, go into the cave and break the mossy cobblestone then lead the baby elephant out through there and it should work


oh I see, yes I did parkour out. She popped right out of there :)

this is a very good map, thank you.
The animals look amazing.
I have freed the pangolins and got a message stating such,
but when I got the baby elephant out of the hole nothing happened,
the ranger next to the hole is still telling me to get it out.
Is that supposed to be like that?
