But first of all...
Isle Royal is a remote wilderness island, surrounded by frigid waters of Lake Superior, and is the home of very few types of animals.

Isle Royale is an amazing place just to take a break
from all of your struggles and technology and just explore the wilderness.
This island allows visitors to have a chance to experience what it was like before humans turned the Great Lakes landscape.

It's also important because the visitors can learn by actually looking at the objects they are studying.

IF YOUR JUST LEARNING FROM A BOOK

There was many shipwrecks that happened around the island. You are able to dive and see these wrecks. The water is 34-37 degrees where you will find the ships.

The park is ecologically significant and was declared an international biosphere reserve in 1981.

All of these reasons make Isle Royale National Park a unique, important, and fascinating place to visit.
All national parks are unique in their way, so I think we should protect these parks.
