Are all canyons created by water?
No, not all canyons are created by water. While many canyons are indeed formed by the erosion caused by rivers or streams, other canyons are created through other geological processes such as tectonic activity, volcanic activity, or glacial activity. These canyons can be formed by processes like faulting, volcanic eruptions, or the retreat of glaciers.
