It's not easy to be a ranger. Most tourists don't know much about nature and aren't shy to show it in questions.
Task
- Explain what is wrong (or goofy) with each of the questions. (Hopefully you won't give dumb answers. :-) )
Yellowstone National Park:
- Does Old Faithful erupt at night?
- How do you turn it on?
- When does the guy who turns it on get to sleep?
- Is it OK to keep an open bag of bacon on the picnic table, or should I store it in my tent?
- How do the elk know they are supposed to cross at the "Elk Crossing" signs?
- How do you pronounce "elk"?
- We had no trouble finding the park entrances, but where are the exits?
Grand Canyon National Park:
