At the Galapagos Islands, Charles Darwin observed several unique animal species that contributed to his theory of evolution. Notable examples include the finches, which exhibited a variety of beak shapes adapted to different food sources, and the giant tortoises, each with distinct shell shapes depending on their specific island habitats. He also encountered marine iguanas and a variety of birds, such as the mockingbirds, which further illustrated the concept of adaptation and speciation. These observations played a crucial role in shaping his ideas about natural selection.
