The Galápagos Islands have inspired the curiosity and imagination of scientists, explorers, and historians for centuries. In this presentation, Hugo Mogollón, President and CEO of Galápagos Conservancy, tells the story of the archipelago through the eyes of its most emblematic inhabitants, the giant tortoises.

From the origins of evolutionary thought to the devastation caused by human arrival, and now to one of the most remarkable ecological recoveries in the natural world, this talk traces the past, present, and future of conservation in Galápagos. Through science, collaboration, and persistence, species once thought lost are returning and reshaping entire ecosystems, in an effort designed to guide the next century of conservation in the islands.
