Galápagos giant tortoises are fascinating—and endangered. They live only on the Galápagos Islands, a chain of volcanic islands in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Ecuador. These tortoises face threads from the humans who live on—and visit—the islands as well as from Earth’s warming climate. Join author Kate Messner on a journey to the Galápagos Islands to see these incredible creatures up close and discover how cutting-edge technology is helping scientists to study and protect them. Text in Spanish.Author’s note. Galápagos tortoise time line. Glossary. Source notes. Bibliography. Suggestions for further reading. Full-color photographs, diagrams, and maps.
