🚨TRIVIA TIME! Which National Park is home to the greatest variety of species? It's the greatsmokynps! And no wonder - this park spans over 800 square miles in the Southern Appalachian Mountains, from Tennessee to North Carolina! As one of the oldest mountain ranges in the world, the Smokies have protected over 19,000 documented species. But scientists think there might be an additional 80,000-100,000 species calling this great mountain range home. Who knows, plan a visit, and maybe you’ll find the next undiscovered species! #NationalWildlifeWeek #Wildlife #WildlifeWeek #EarthMonth #GreatSmokies #Smokies #GreatSmokyMountainsNationalPark #GreatSmokyMountains #NationalPark #NorthCarolina #Tennessee #Mountain #Mountains #Biodiversity #Ecosystems #Earth #Environment 📸: nationalparkservice Image: An Eastern Box Turtle stares directly into the camera.
