Zion is so incredible. Just absolutely jaw dropping. Everyone should experience it at least once.

[@harlow743]

Love ZION

[@fanuvmusic]

Please return to this series of videos…this is a great breakdown and I can’t wait to see the other parks

[@Hamadeen]

This was such a great series. It's a shame that you left it. I hope you one day come back to continue the series. There are many national parks that deserve your incredible treatment.

[@liamhiggins668]

Please Please finish this series ! Its its very thorough and inspiring.

[@jessicashaw1796]

I loved this video so much! I'm obsessed with America's national parks. They are so stunning. I need to see part 2 and 3!

Some very nice transitions there. Keep up the amazing work!

[@Textbooktravel]

Thank you!! It took 2 days to work out which order to do them all in so your comment really made smile :)

[@kangtheconqueror8784]

learned a lot. thanks.

[@yanaboiko8827]

very professional and educational video! thank you! waitinf for the rest of the parks

[@Guydude777]

My kind of content! Amazing video. Looking forward to part 2.

[@gregwilkinson3558]

I am so lucky to live in the great smoky mountains. I go up there every now and again and it still amazes me how beautiful it is. If you want to visit these mountains I highly recommend fall or mid-spring. I saw a bear run across one of the neighborhoods once. I named him berry 😅

[@pankajkumarmondal4490]

Lots of very important information. Well done 👍🏾

[@ilovebibbles]

this video is just perfect. so informative . just PERFECT !!

[@andersonwhite2539]

This channel is incredible and so are these parks

[@Textbooktravel]

Thank you so much! I really enjoyed researching these parks

[@bukenyadouglas2183]

Your videos are always interesting on top of being educational

[@Textbooktravel]

Thank you!

[@powboi9622]

My country really has som beautiful wild areas. Your videos are so good

[@theriotartist]

Mammoth Cave National Park is beautiful above ground. I went to the Job Corps center there for school.

[@rhettC5]

loved the video!! us here in the states pronounce it Grand Teeton like TEE!

[@jefemiller]

Samoa and Saguaro seem fascinating. Also, can you maybe make a cephlpod video?

[@easevlogs1778]

We need part 2

[@shawnohagan5503]

Great video

[@Cartersvillain]

Need the next two videos!

[@billyr2904]

yet again, was not expecting this. When is the primate video going to come? your relatives series are the best videos analysing a specific group of animals. you're still a great channel and I know you're doing something different.

[@Textbooktravel]

Hi there! The short answer is that I'm not sure. I need more practice before I do the primates video. This will be one of my all-time favourites to make and I will only get one opportunity to do so. I have decided to pursue KZbin full-time and as much as I love doing the Relatives series, I will run out of families eventually (unless I turn into an insect channel!) so I need to run multiple series concurrently. National Parks is something I have wanted to explore for a long time; as well as being interesting in their own right, I see it as a great opportunity to discover interesting species and families (I am obsessed with salamanders after this video!) so I hope you enjoy them! I shouldn't say I'm going to make a video and then not make it thought so I apologise for that

[@billyr2904]

You can explore other classes like insects if you want, because well there are way more invertebrate than vertebrate species. You don't have to stick with the same thing, you can change things up a bit, and cover another side of the animal Kingdom. I'm not saying this is strictly a vertebrate channel, but most when they think of animals they think of vertebrates.

[@peytongordon3971]

Please do pt 2

[@limericklad2000]

Great vid. Is there no next one? Oh btw it's pronounced 'Tee-Ton'.

[@DakotaofRaptors]

Can I offer a video suggestion for you to cover? I really am interested in Wake Island and the extinct bird species that lived on it.

[@ritamae2474]

Is there a video somewhere on the rest of the national parks in US?

[@Daniel-bs4yx]

The video is amazing, it would be great if you did for other countries

[@daverodriguez9902]

Great content, but some distracting pronunciation issues.

[@Textbooktravel]

This is great feedback thank you, Dave! I'll pay more attention to pronunciation for future videos

[@erinmcgrathejm4985]

@@Textbooktravel, yeah…too many pronunciation issues to count. 😫 Check your narration against other sources before recording/downloading.

[@sexysupervillain802]

Is there no part 2?!

[@mmjj7685]

Do a video about national parks of every country in the world just like this one for the US. I want to learn more about national parks of other countries.

[@benttoolip]

Anyone know where to find the rest of this series? I loved this one but can’t find any others

[@seanchadwick9036]

The g in gila, is pronounced like an h because the word, and/or it’s pronunciation is derived from Spanish where the letter g is often pronounced like the letter h

[@kristenlavoie6609]

When will there be a part 2 and 3?

[@kendallkahl8725]

Gunnison Canyon was also caused by glacial floods when ice dams broke. If it and the Grand Canyon were actually millions of years old they would have gentle slopes from weathering.

[@carsonschwertner6306]

This should have millions of views. One day it iell

[@jennetal.984]

It’s pronounced “TEE-ton” not “TEH-ton”. The voiceover artist has indisputably been found out as a foreigner.

[@samueltilly8528]

"Voiceover artist" lmao you mean narrator? And yeah the channel is British

[@peytongordon3971]

Bruh have you not noticed the British accent the whole time😅 but yes his pronunciation was killing me through that part lol

[@_.skyyblue._]

I went to the great smoky mountains. It is stunning, I wish I lived there. Fun fact: me and my family hiked up a mountain there, and someone drew an among us character with a sharpie on one of the rocks 🤠

[@gregwilkinson3558]

I do live there and I can confirm its amazing. Im still amazed every time I go up there. Also, yes there is a lot of strange art 😅

[@melindabendle288]

WORLD WIDE THANK YOU VERY MUCH LOVE TO VIEW THE PARTS OF THE PLANET EARTH 🦋🇺🇸🌎🌏🇺🇸🥰MELINDA

[@thegamingspino2597]

It’s prononsed Teeton but other white good work👍

[@issievdhorst]

LOVELY

[@Twentynyne]

I wish Alaska's state parks counted as federal parks, we have so much land that needs to be protected

[@Torgall]

Could you add metric units in the future videos, somewhere noticeable on the screen? I really like your content but it's hard to judge the relative size/weight different in feet/pounds. It's not exactly crucial, but it would certainly be useful. PS: I wouldn't call star-nosed mole beautiful, but I bet his girlfriend finds him quite handsome :)

[@TRDbison]

When we getting the next part?

[@adrianrutterford762]

Good News. A new video just appeared in my notifications. Evening viewing sorted!

[@Textbooktravel]

Haha! I hope you enjoy it! Have a great weekend, Adrian

[@adrianrutterford762]

@@Textbooktravel Thanks for another fabulous video. Wonderful images and interesting information.

[@NanuqEditzS]

Can you make a video about the Crocodilian family?

[@Textbooktravel]

Definitely! That one is very close to the top of the list

[@NanuqEditzS]

@@Textbooktravel Awesome!

[@indyreno2933]

Crocodilians are not a family, they are actually an order, there are four living families of crocodilians being Gavialidae (Gharials), Alligatoridae (Alligators), Caimanidae (Caimans), and Crocodylidae (Crocodiles).

[@EIij4h]

Pt. 2?? 👀

What about Mystery Flesh Pit? That’s my favorite park!

[@seanchadwick9036]

Teton, is pronounced tee taan.

[@indyreno2933]

Lions, buffalo, and antelope are all found only in both Africa and Asia, therefore there are no such things as either a mountain lion, american buffalo, or american antelope, the correct common names for these species "Puma concolor", "Bison bison", and "Antilocapra americana" are puma, american bison, and pronghorn respectively.

[@lemuret69]

Mountain lion is one of many accepted common names for the puma.

[@indyreno2933]

However, it is an incorrect common name because pumas look nothing like lions and are not closely related to them at all, the puma is more closely related to cheetahs, it is also incorrect to call a bison buffalo because bison are distantly related to buffalo, bison are a genus of true cattle, which refers to members of the subtribe Bovina, with the closest living relative of the bison (genus Bison) being the Yak (Poephagus grunniens), while buffalo are an entirely distinct subtribe (Bubalina), it is also incorrect to call pronghorns antelope because the word "antelope" refers exclusively and correctly to the taxa Tetracerus, Tragelaphini, Hippotraginae, Peleinae, Reduncinae, Antilopinae, Cephalophinae, and Neotraginae of the family Bovidae, whereas the pronghorn is not part of Bovidae, it is the only living representative of the family Antilocapridae, which is more closely related to giraffids than to bovids.

[@theswordoftruth-dn9yc]

Dude! I live in Arizona, and you really need to pronounce some words correctly; like, saguaro, gila, and Teton! The "g" in saguaro is Not pronounced, as in the Spanish language, as well as "gila" the "g" is Not pronounced. Then "Teton" has a long 'e' sound, Not a short 'e' sound. Just thought this would help you with future videos. Other wise, a great job! Thanks 😊👌

[@kendallkahl8725]

It Tea Ton.

[@erinbroderick2819]

Teeeeeeeeeetons.

[@Gigi-fv9ky]

It's not pronounced Teh-ton, it's TEE-tahn. And gila monster is not pronounced Gila, but heela. And, Mesa Verde isn't pronounced mess-a, it is may-sa.

[@isaiahtowers1865]

TETon? Gayzers?

[@arasartsandjewelry7647]

Great video but as an Arizona resident I outwardly cringed everytime you said gila and saguaro. The g is pronounced as an h so its (hee-la) and (suh-war-o).

[@LashnZachAdventure]

the way you pronounce teton! XDD totally off
