To help address this glaring deficiency, award-winning childrens science writer Sneed Collard traveled to the Galapagos Islands to see for himself, where Charles Darwin saw, how new species form. The result is this fascinating story of two species of iguana, one land-based and one marine, both of which developed from a single ancestor that reached the islands millions of years ago. The animals evolved in different directions while living within sight of one another. How is that possible? Collard uses the iguanas to explore Charles Darwins great discovery. 650 $a Iguanas $x Juvenile literature. 650 $a Natural selection $x Juvenile literature. 650 $a Mutation $x Juvenile literature. 650 $a Evolution $x Juvenile literature. 941 $a 13 952 $l CJPC482 $d 20240202015701.0 952 $l CPPC926 $d 20231111010831.0 952 $l SIPD314 $d 20230201014810.0 952 $l UPAX334 $d 20230104040542.0 952 $l WAPD715 $d 20210924015441.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722060807.0 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20210204023830.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20200529014839.0 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20191018011144.0 952 $l RZPE145 $d 20190328020031.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20181127015522.0 952 $l EWPB745 $d 20181127015441.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20181127014741.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9BABA168EFB611E896147F4797128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
