Therefore, bears should not be removed from National Parks because the parks not only provide food storage, but there are no recorded deaths by bears in Yosemite park, and the bears help disperse berry seeds. One reason bears should not be removed from National Parks…

Falls can lead to pain, loss of function, fear of further falls and even death (Tanaka, Sakuma, Ohtani, Toshiro, Matsumura, & Morimoto, 2012).

people have heard of Yellowstone National Park but not everyone knows how strange yet spectacular the caldera actually is. Yellowstone is a supervolcano and the park sits on top of a massive crater called a caldera. According to a NOVA documentary, the caldera is large enough to hold the city of LA and the magma chamber encompasses half of the park above it and extends almost 5 miles deep (Adah, 2016). This makes Yellowstone’s magma chamber the largest known on Earth. Since Yellowstone is a…
