Galapagos wildlife adventure cruises in Ecuador


Galapagos tortoisesGalapagos Islands information & Ecuador travel guide contributed by thousands of visitors from around the world. The natural history of these islands is eminently curious, and well deserves attention. Most of the organic productions are aboriginal creations, found nowhere else; there is even a difference between the inhabit-ants of the different islands; yet all show a marked relationship with those of America, though separated from that continent by an open space of ocean, between 500 and 600 miles in width.

The archipelago is a little world within itself, or rather a satellite attached to America, whence it has derived a few stray colonists, and has received the general character of its indigenous productions.

Considering the small size of these islands, we feel the more astonished at the number of their aboriginal beings, and at their confined range. Seeing every height crowned with its crater, and the boundaries of most of the lava-streams still distinct, we are led to believe that within a period, geologi-callyrecent, the unbroken ocean was here spread out.

Hence, bothin space and time, we seem to be brought somewhat near to that great fact-that mystery of mysteries-the first appearance of new beings on this earth. (Charles Darwin 1845).
