2) Glacier National Park
Glacier National Park is in the U.S. state of Montana. This pristine ecosystem includes over 1,000,000 acres and covers parts of two mountain ranges, more than 130 lakes, over 1,000 different species of plants and hundreds of species of animals. Some of the exotic animals found in this park are mountain goat, grizzly, wolverine and lynx.
The mountains in the Glacier National Park started shaping 170 million years ago. In 1850, it was estimated that the park houses 150 glaciers, of which only 25 glaciers remained till 2010. Scientists who are keeping track of the glaciers have estimated that by 2020 all the glaciers of Glacier National Park may disappear if the current climate pattern continues.
