National Parks Quiz: Landscapes, Wildlife and Firsts

Nature · 12 questions · Easy

The national park is barely 150 years old as an idea, and it spread fast: from a single American reserve in 1872 to thousands of protected areas across every continent. Each one exists because somebody argued that a landscape was worth more intact than developed.

These twelve questions cover the famous parks, the wildlife they protect and the geological features that made them worth protecting. Explanations include dates and locations.

A gentle quiz with genuinely surprising numbers in the answers.

Before you start

  • Geological features are usually the giveaway for a park's identity.
  • Watch for questions asking about the first or the largest.
  • Wildlife questions favour the most famous resident species.
  • One question per page. Choose an answer and you will see whether you were right, plus why.
  • Restarting is only available after you reach the final results page, so your level reflects a complete run.
