The agreement which will make the two sites "sister parks" is now expected to be signed into agreement when President-elect Joe Biden takes office over the coming weeks.

 

The twinning will facilitate collaboration between the parks on shared challenges such as high visitor numbers, controlling invasive species and ecological monitoring.
