Meet the fluffiest local of the Galápagos! 🐣🤍
This adorable blue-footed b***y chick, wrapped in soft white down, is a true symbol of the archipelago’s unique biodiversity. As they grow, they develop the iconic bright blue feet, which play a crucial role in their adult courtship displays. These chicks are a testament to the thriving life of this remarkable ecosystem.

Known as a "living fossil," the flightless cormorants of Galápagos are a fascinating example of evolution in action. They still have wings, but too small for flying, and instead now helping them to balance while swimming and diving in deep waters. With their strong webbed feet, they can dive more than 10 meters to hunt for fish and mollusks.

Cormorants are monogamous, forming lifelong pairs, and build nests on the coast using algae and branches, where the female lays 2 or 3 eggs. What's most surprising is how this species evolved and adapted uniquely to the islands' conditions; its change was drastic, highlighting its role as a living window into evolution.

In San Cristóbal, you'll find one of the largest populations of Zalophus wollebaeki sea lions, an endemic species to the Galápagos.
The beaches are often packed with these playful animals, with the sea lion babies staying close to their mothers for the first year of life. These sea lions are the smallest in the world and are known for their unique way of communicating through barks, grunts, and moans. Each sea lion has a unique "call" that mothers and pups can recognize, even in a noisy, crowded colony.

An iconic animal of the Galápagos Islands is the Galápagos Giant Tortoise.
They hatch at a weight of only about 70 grams and potentially grow to 500 pounds or more!
They are the largest tortoises in the world and the longest living of all vertebrates.

The Galapagos Giant Tortoises have evolved uniquely on each island, adapting to diverse environments.
During the 18th and 19th centuries, they were hunted for their meat and fat, bringing them close to extinction. However, thanks to conservation efforts, their populations are beginning to recover.

Did you know that red-footed bo***es are the smallest yet fastest species of the three b***y species found in Galápagos? Unlike their relatives that nest on the ground, these birds prefer to nest in trees. Additionally, they are exceptional at fishing, diving from heights of up to 30 meters—deeper than any of the other b***y species.

Did you know that the endemic Galapagos marine iguanas are the only sea-going lizards in the world?
They have the capacity to swim very long distances, up to 65km - which means that they can even relocate between the islands!
