          The Mammoth Cave National Park is a highly popular park that preserves the Mammoth cave, which has the longest cave system in the world. It is located in Kentucky in the US. Explorers have mapped more than 650 kilometres of caves here, and still continue to discover new passages.

          For the surprises inside, the Mammoth caves are nothing but a magnificent creation. There are underground lakes, rivers and numerous geologic formations that leave any visitor spell-bound. Apart from the large natural entrance, there are as well many artificial ones as well, including an access by elevator that helps visitors to enter the caves. Inside the passages live numerous animals that perfectly adapt to the cave conditions. The eyeless fish and cave crickets are two of them.

           Various kinds of birds, reptiles, animals like the white-tailed deer, foxes and opossums are some of the wild animals inhabiting the park.
