Secluded environments, such as islands, have their own animals and plants because they were allowed to evolve in a unique environment. The animals and plants adapt to the unique living conditions.

There is also very little or no migration of plants and animals from other areas.

How did tortoises varied from island to island?

Tortoises varied from island to island primarily due to differences in environmental conditions, such as food availability and climate. These variations led to distinct adaptations, such as differences in shell shape and size; for instance, some islands had tortoises with dome-shaped shells suited for dense vegetation, while others featured saddle-backed shells that allowed for easier grazing on higher vegetation. These adaptations are examples of natural selection acting on isolated populations, contributing to the diversity of species observed in the Galápagos Islands.

How many rivers on kangaroo island?

It is not known how many kangaroos are on Kangaroo Island. Kangaroo Island was originally named for its kangaroos, which provided an abundant supply of fresh meat for sea explorer Matthew Flinders and his crew when they had been living off salted meat for four months. However, following European settlement, the kangaroo, like many of the native animal populations, dwindled greatly in numbers. There are some populations, but they are not as noticeable as the introduced koala population, which has thrived due to the absence of predators on the island.
