The national park's wildlife is also doing well, being protected from hunters, they are growing stronger in numbers and some species have gotten off the endangered list, but their species are still being threatened today as they speak. The pants, and flowers are also being saved from tourist picking, stepping, killed, and being endangered. Wanting each park to show the beauty and extravagance on how the park has changed becoming extremely gorgeous past the years.
"We have become great because of the lavish use of our resources. But the time has come to inquire seriously what will happen when our forests are gone, when the coal, the iron, the oil, and the gas are exhausted, when the soils have still further impoverished and washed into the streams, polluting the rivers, denuding the fields and obstructing navigation." Theodore Roosevelt http://www.nps.gov/thro/historyculture/theodore-roosevelt-and-conservation.htm
