The mystery and wonder of the Galapagos Islands revealed
The Galapagos Islands are a group of small islands that formed due to volcanic activity and the shifting of the earth's tectonic plates only 400 million years ago. They are among the youngest land masses on the planet, and they are also among the most unique and mysterious. This area, near the equator has been described as remote, hostile, and unforgiving. They are also described as being the most beautiful and wonderful islands anywhere. Charles Darwin put this place on the map when he studied life here almost 200 years ago and he remarked that the creatures were surprisingly unique and diverse. Understanding that the animals on each island had physically changed with each generation, to adapt to their surroundings, it formed the cornerstone of his theory of evolution. This theory changed the way we saw animals, life on our planet, and even our own species. Exploring the Galapagos Islands is one of the most thrilling and fascinating adventures possible.
