海鬣蜥 Marine iguana
海鬣蜥是進化論其中一個知名物種。科學家相信牠們的袓先原先生活在中美洲叢林中,數百萬年前隨海漂流到加拉帕戈斯群島。為了生存,牠們改變了膚色、口鼻部變得圓鈍,更學懂潛水覓食的絕技。
Marine iguana is one of the well-known species in evolution. Scientists believe that the lizard's ancestors formerly lived in the jungles of Central America and were carried to the Galapagos archipelago by ocean current several million years ago. In order to survive, they changed their skin colour, flattened their snouts and even learned to dive for food.
