Yosemite National Park was originally called “Ahawanee” by the southern Miwok people who lived there.

ANACOSTIA PARK – Hundreds of tires were dumped in Anacostia Park in Washington, D.C. The mountain of tires was discovered back in December in a brazen act of littering. Now a big effort is rolling to clean up the mess with work expected to take several days. 

“This isn’t how our national parks should look. This isn’t how our national parks should be treated,” U.S. Park Police Sgt. Thomas Twiname told NBC4. 

Authorities think the tires were dumped from an overpass and are still looking for the culprit.
