National Parks
National park systems were started in the U.S and Canada to protect places of great beauty, of scientific
interest, or with unusual plants or animals
In 1872, the United States government passed a law naming Yell National Park, in Wyoming, as the first park to belong to all the people in the country It is an area with geysers, hot springs, waterfalls and lakes A few years later, Canada named Banff, in Alberta, its first national park This park protects magnificent lakes, mountains, and forests
Both countries continued to add parks to their national park systems Lat some areas were named as national parks because they contained remains of Indian societies Other parks protect areas that were important in the exploration and history of the two countries
Even though the North of Canada did not develop as fast as the South, more and more people realised it was important to save the large populations of wildlife before it was too late
Today national parks protect scenic and historical areas from Hawaii to Newfoundland The parks cover
millions of hectares in the mountains, the deserts, the forests, and along the coasts
Other countries have developed national park systems, too People everywhere in the world can enjoy the
natural beauty of their countries and know it is protected And they know the parks will be there for the
enjoyment of their children`s children
