Show Notes
September has been Biodiversity Month, so we’re heading into the Squiz Kids Vault for a trip to one of the most remarkable places on Earth: the Galápagos Islands!
How did swimming iguanas, giant tortoises and finches with different beaks end up on these volcanic islands? And what did a young Charles Darwin notice when he arrived aboard the Beagle?
Join Amanda and Bryce to discover how the Galápagos helped change our understanding of life on Earth. Keep your ears open for a rather gruesome finch, and a S’Quiz at the end!
