The
archipelago is famous as a home to animals species
unique in the world. One of these, and perhaps
the best known, is the giant tortoise know as
the Galapagos tortoise, which lives on seven
of the islands. It has an averange lifespan
of more than 150 years. The marina iguana is
also extremely important since it is the only
reptile adapted to life in the water. |
