Introduction For The Galapagos Region

Did you know that the Galapagos, which is most commonly known for it being the place where the famous biologist and scientist, Charles Darwin, came up with the theory of evolution (www.Galapagosconservation.org). The Galapagos is 3,093 miles2, according to www.metropolitan-touring.com, and in the website www.worldwildlife.org it says ̈ The Galapagos is located in South America, 600 miles off the coast of ecuador.¨Another fact about the location is that the Galapagos, according to www.celebritycruises.com , is also not quite in the Northern hemisphere nor is it in the Southern hemisphere which makes the Galapagos have a special location. If you go to www.Galapagos-pro.com, you can find the climate which is a tropical climate with an average of 84.2° and a water temperature average of 77.9°. The Galapagos also has quite a few interesting geographical features. According to www.Galapagosbound.com, there are volcanos, lava tunnels and pit tunnels. My favorite fun fact about the Galapagos is that, ¨In 1998, the Ecuadorian government enacted the Galapagos Special Law, a legal framework to protect the Galapagos, and created the Galapagos Marine Reserve.¨ (www.worldwildlife.org).
