The Galapagos Islands profoundly influenced Charles Darwin's thinking by providing him with a unique opportunity to observe diverse species exhibiting distinct adaptations to their specific environments. The variation he noted among finches, tortoises, and other organisms led him to formulate his ideas on natural selection and evolution. These observations challenged the prevailing views of species being fixed and unchanging, ultimately shaping his groundbreaking work, "On the Origin of Species." The islands served as a living laboratory, illustrating the principles of adaptation and speciation in real time.
