Description
Long before Darwin arrived in 1835, the Galapagos Islands were home to about 300,000 of the Galapagos giant tortoise, which can weigh up to 500 pounds and live for 150 years. Their numbers have now dwindled to 3,000, and the reason is: humans. This ABC News report investigates how an increase in tourism helps the economy but is endangering the islands' unique wildlife.
