Why Were National Parks Created?

They were created to protect wildlife animals and to protect environments. Also, because there are many buildings and industry is developing so fast, we now reached a place where we need to actually phisically protect an environment and make a national park so we do not use all the nature in buildings, factories and etc.

Teddy Roosevelt created National Parks to keep them as they were so that developers, railroads, and roads could not destroy these national treasures.

Well like national wildlife parks are created to protect something special that lives in the usually. Such as some hold very old or rare trees. Others hold very unique landforms, ect...!
