Charles Darwin Station "Lonesome George" - Santa Cruz Island, Galapagos

Join me as I visit the Charles Darwin Research Station on Santa Cruz Island in the Galápagos, home of the legendary Lonesome George, the last of his species. Each island in the Galápagos has its own unique tortoise, and George’s story is one of nature’s most powerful reminders of extinction and conservation.

We’ll see baby Galápagos tortoises, learn how they’re protected, and witness the incredible effort to preserve these ancient creatures. Lonesome George lived to be about 90 years old, and standing next to him is like stepping back in time. This is one of the most moving wildlife encounters in the world, a must-see before it’s too late.
