    Wood Buffalo National Park preserves Alberta's land and adds to quality of life by protecting rare ecosystems. Jasper National Park attracts many visitors each year for its natural beauty, but humans and pets could threaten the caribou. Banff National Park risks damage if people do not protect the land, so visitors could help by preserving the environment. Elk Island National Park was saved from development and aims to reintroduce trumpeter swans through conservation efforts. Waterton Lakes National Park is like Jasper but differs from Wood Buffalo in its smaller size and location near the Canada-US border.
