Cave Country
Cave Country refers to regions known for their extensive cave systems, often featuring unique geological formations. These areas attract tourists and researchers interested in exploring natural wonders like stalactites and stalagmites. Notable examples include the Mammoth Cave in Kentucky and the Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico.
Cave Country is also significant for its biodiversity, as many caves provide habitats for specialized species, including bats and unique invertebrates. The ecosystems within these caves are delicate and often require conservation efforts to protect them from human impact and environmental changes.
