More than 750 U.S. national park workers have been fired amid the Trump administration's purge of federal employees, per an unofficial tally shared with Axios by a park ranger.
Why it matters: Families headed to a National Park for Spring Break may have to deal with extra trash, dirty bathrooms and fewer rangers to help if they get in a bind.
Zoom in: At least four employees were fired from the Buffalo National River in Arkansas.
How it works: That information comes from a spreadsheet shared with Axios by a U.S. park ranger who requested anonymity to protect their job and employment opportunities.
The spreadsheet, which shows 756 total firings as of March 4, is based on reports from hundreds of rangers and other park workers in multiple online groups.
Because it's a crowdsourced effort, the document is likely incomplete and undercounts the full breadth of the firings.
The National Parks Conservation Association, an independent parks advocacy group, says more than 1,000 park staffers were fired on Feb. 14.
