More About Galápagos
The Galápagos Islands were made by volcanoes. They are young and still have some hot spots. The islands are far from other land, so animals came there long ago. They had to change to live in this new place.
We can learn a lot from the Galápagos. They show us how life can change. The animals and plants help us see how nature works. This helps us in our own lives.
In the future, we must keep the islands safe. More people want to visit. We need to care for the plants and animals. This way, they will be here for a long time.
