lonesome george



He's the last Pinta Tortoise in the world. He's a symbol for conservation. He's everyone's favorite tortoise. If you roll your eyes and think, "A tortoise? C'mon. Who cares?" I challenge you to read the book Lonesome George. It's a fantastic read on Galápagos, and it makes the reader keenly aware of human impact on nature. Nature can be strong. Nature can be fragile.
