520			_a"Charles Darwin, who visited these islands in 1835, based his theory of evolution on the riotous diversity he found. The diversity is still here, but so are alien species, tourists, and increasingly restive fisherman. Can the Galapagos ecosystem survive?" (AUDUBON) The author describes how "Darwin's archipelago has succumbed to the litany of modern ills....Tourists besiege it. Introduced species overrun it. El Nino has irrevocably altered it. Immigrants from the mainland overpopulate it. The government of Ecuador, of which it is a province, milks it for cash.".
