Description
From Galapagos.org: "Through a combination of cutting edge genetic research and time-tested field work, scientists have determined that a Galapagos Giant Tortoise species long thought to be extinct in the wild may still be living on the northern end of the island of Isabela, a few hundred kilometers from Floreana, their island of origin." UM Biology Professor Ryan Garrick talks about his role in the study. Video by Mary Stanton.
