The Galapagos Islands are located 600
miles west of Ecuador and offer some of the most spectacular
wildlife found anywhere in the world. Nowhere else on this
planet will you find penguins which live on the equator
(the Galapagos Penguin) or iguanas which swim and feed in
the ocean (the Marine Iguanas)! Because these islands have
only recently been invaded by man, the literally 1000s of
animals that inhabit these islands have never learned to
fear us. This means that you can literally walk right up
to hundreds of blue-footed boobie birds, red-footed boobie
birds, masked boobie birds, albatrosses, penguins, land
iguanas, marine iguanas, lava lizards, sea lions, fur seals,
red-chested frigate birds, flamingos, finches, tropic birds, l
ava gulls, giant tortoises, and flightless cormorants.
