'Why is the galapagos tortoise endangered'?
The Galapagos tortoise is endangered because people eat the eggs they lay and the adult tortoises are hunted for their big shells. Also, the pollution of the Galapagos islands is hurting the Galapagos tortoise as well. Actually, this species is not endangered, but considered "Vulnerable". Strictly protected by law, they are no longer hunted, and their numbers are again increasing. Ten of fifteen subspecies still survive there, and captive born hatchlings are released each year. The islands there are not under any current threat from pollution.
Is the Galapagos Turtle real?
Yes! They are called "Galapagos tortoises," by the way. They live in the Galapagos Islands, which are 13 main islands and many smaller islands, all of which are off the coast of Equador in South America. Galapagos tortoises are huge, the biggest tortoises alive today, getting to be up to 660 lbs (300 kg)! They eat about 70 lbs. of food, and sometimes a lot more. There are 12 different species of Galapagos tortoises, but two of them are extinct. The remaining Galapagos tortoises are labeled as "threatend" and "vulnerable." A lot of people mistakenly call tortoises "turtles." A turtle is water-dwelling (either sea or fesh water), omnivorous and flat shelled, while tortoises are land-dwelling, vegetarian, and have dome-shaped shells. Also, tortoises are really, really slow (average speed for a Galapagos tortoise is .18 mph!) and turtles are actually surprisingly fast.
