Park rangers are cops but most laws they enforce are entirely reasonable. You can have some shitty ones that fuck things up but most are morally about the same as a regular job. If they wanted to fuck with people, they wouldn't be a park ranger, they'd be a city cop. The fact that they decided to do shit in the woods instead of patrol cities makes me give them the benefit of the doubt.
Most people who have bad interactions with rangers are dumb kids doing something they shouldn't. Which explains why Hexbear is so quick to jump on them.
