San Andreas State Park Rangers

The **San Andreas State Park Rangers**, along with the **Los Santos Police Department** and the **Highway Patrol**, are the lawful executive branch of the Los Santos Criminal Justice System in Los Santos. These branches of the lawful executive ensure law is upheld and controlled throughout the State of San Andras and the Isle of Los Santos.

## Chain of Command

SASPR is one part of the Lawful Executive branch in Los Santos. Ranger Miles is the Chief of the Rangers.

This is followed by Ranger Doug Ryker, and Ranger Abel Callaway who hold Ranger Rank, equivalent to Lieutenant's within the Los Santos Police Department.

## Headquaters

**Beaver Bush Park Ranger Station** which is located at Baytree Canyon Road & Marlowe Drive in Vinewood Hills. This is primary area that the Rangers carry out their most trusted work, interrogations and protection of the environment and wildlife.

## Mike the Beaver (Deceased)

Mike the Beaver (*pictured in logo)* had been a Mascot since the early 1990's, where Ranger Miles (initially the only Park Ranger) found the Beaver in a deeply injured state, and utilising his skills, nursed the Beaver back to full health. Unfortunately, Mike the Beaver became domesticated and subsequently became the lead Mascot for Beaver Bush Ranger Station.

Mike was key to fundraising for the Beaver Bush Wildlife Prevention Fund (BBWPF), gaining thousands of dollars in donations which went towards new vehicles, and a brand new building at Beaver Bush.

Due to his fame, Mike the Beaver became unruly, and started biting and clawing whenever approached.

Ryker, unlike Miles wasn't keen on the Beaver, and when Mike went on a feral rampage towards the Park Ranger, was shot.

It was decided that Mike, was to be kept in a drawer in the main Beaver Bush office, to hide this from Ranger Miles. He has remained ever since.

Occassionally, Callaway uses the Beaver's fur husk as a wig to blend in during his undercover escapades in the Hills of Los Santos.

## Style of Policing

As is known with the criminal underworld, the Rangers do not play ball. They have very old and unorthodox methods of interrogation which includes 'trust exercises', beatdowns, 'trips', hiring as informants, and over leveraging punishment in turn for information.

Due to their lack of humanity, they opt mainly to punish those who come across their radar if they feel they aren't conforming to the Ranger way, which is to put up, or shut up, and to speak when spoken too.

Rangers have previously been trained to a high standard, and set a benchmark in standards for certain things, and fall short of others (such as perp treatment).

Ranger Miles, along with Callaway and Ryker simply do not care, and repercussions are limited. It is known that the Rangers have done a small number of deals in exchange for large amounts of information.

## Recruitment

Ranger Miles has always intended for the SASPR to be a closed organisation, and as such does not openly recruit. The policy (known across Los Santos) is that Rangers are chosen, not recruited.

Due to this, all recruitment is closed until such time someone comes forward that has the quality that the Rangers desire to join the pack.
