This new, thoroughly updated and lavishly illustrated fourth
edition of Bradt's Galápagos Wildlife is packed with information
and magnificent pictures to aid in identifying key species, all in
an easy-to-carry format that covers everything from the wildlife
that you're likely to encounter, whether flying in the air, running
along the ground or swimming underwater, to a succinct history of
the islands, their habitats and volcanic origins. This guide
includes the most detailed descriptions and maps of the main
visitor sites of any book in print, so you can see where a boat
will land and what can be seen there - enabling you to plan
effectively for a rewarding visit. An overview of conservation
efforts is also included, as are unique island trail plans for
those looking to explore. Written and illustrated by two
expert-naturalist guides, who have both been visiting the islands
for decades, this new edition covers all the latest information,
from the discovery of an 'extinct' tortoise species not seen for
over 100 years on Fernandina island and the discovery of new rare
'pink iguanas' on Isabela island's Wolf volcano (the highest point
on the Galápagos), to the change in taxonomy of 'Darwin's finches'
and the new species status of the almost-extinct little vermillion
flycatcher. Snorkelling with sea lions, penguins and sharks at
Devil's Crown, Floreana is included, as is kayaking in pristine
locations such as Española's Gardiner Bay. Travelling to the
Galápagos is a rite of passage for serious wildlife enthusiasts.
Now with more detailed descriptions, more photos, and updated
information on conservation efforts, Bradt's Galápagos Wildlife is
the perfect companion for this once-in-a-lifetime trip.
