How large is the park? What types of wildlife are found there? What kind of recreation is present? Have you ever visited in person?

This week we will understand our impact on National Parks, and what we should be doing to preserve them. National parks can be a controversial topic, so make sure that you keep your post and your replies respectful!

For this week’s initial post:

Find a National Park : https://www.nps.gov/findapark/index.htm
Choose the state in which you reside, or if you are deployed, one that you have visited or are interested in visiting. There are a lot of parks, so make sure you choose one that is different than your classmates and use it in the title of your post.
Recall that this is a biology class, therefore please select a park that allows you to discuss the wildlife and ecological and economic advantages as your priority.
Discuss:
