Darwin Galapagos Archipelago

Darwin Galapagos:

British naturalist Charles Darwin wrote in his travel journal very

comprehensive observations of nature. It was in the Galapagos archipelago

that Darwin collected wealth of scientific data.

Nature observation such as

animal behavior and diversity

of flora and fauna has led to

Darwin’s Theory of Evolution:

Whether or not an organism

will survive depends on how

well that organism will adapt

to its environment.

Science calls it biological adaptation of species.

The native world of the Galapagos is at risk: these endangered species

never had a chance to adapt to changes brought by man.

The Santa Cruz Island holds the Charles Darwin Research Station

– Charles Darwin Foundation.

The scientists are there to conserve the Galapagos landscapes to as close

to its natural state as possible; to protect biological diversity

without creating new forms; promote conservation and scientific research.

The aspect of preserving the

Galapagos Islands brings many

questions to mind.

Here are some:

a) Will the native species adapt

to the introduced plants and

animals?

b) Will some of the native

animals die out because there will be not enough food for them?

c) Will some of the native animals die out because the introduced species

eat their young?

d) How to develop any practical and effective conservation actions

e) What can I do to help?

f) How to control non-native species?

g) How to restore native population?

h) How to manage current human impact?
