Darwin’s Galapagos Islands

SATURDAY 6 FEBRUARY

Theatre 1
Time:
5.00pm
Title:  Darwin’s Galapagos Islands
Speaker:  Pierre Thomas
Company:  CTS Horizons

When Charles Darwin arrived in the Galapagos in 1835, he found the islands were home to a number of unique species. Travelling in his footsteps modern visitors to the Galapagos experience the same enchanted world. Like Darwin, we can marvel at how tame many of the animals are - a phenomenon explained by the absence of large predators. In the secluded bays you can swim with playful sea lions and on the lava shores you can stand next to a blue-footed booby as it feeds it young. Learn about these Enchanted Islands, a world before man intruded, at CTS Horizons’ Galapagos presentation.
