Answer:

A natural protected area in my city is Valles Caldera National Park. This park is located within

the Jemez Mountains in New Mexico and the area is most known for being the creator left

behind by a volcanic eruption that happened 1.25 million years ago. The park also has great

hiking trails, fly fishing, and an abundance of wildlife. Most people come to see the huge elk

herds that gather in the Caldera, especially during rutting season (which this time of year).

There are also areas nearby for camping both for rvs, tents, and unloading horses. I have not

had the chance to hike the trails in the park yet but many people in my neighborhood tell me

how nice it is so I think I will plan a day to head out there before it gets even colder because the

elevation of the Caldera is 11,253 feet above sea level. Some efforts that are made to protect the

animals and plants in the area are signs warning people what not to touch and do not throw

cigarettes or other trash. Some concerns that arise trying to protect the land are making sure

people do not start wildfires and be cautions of the animals such as black bears and coyotes so

that no one gets hurt.

There are also concerns of the state of the land after it rains because when it rains there
are typically floods.
