Evolution creates living treasures on isolated islands.
Nature’s most extraordinary creations often emerge in the world’s most remote corners, where geographic isolation becomes an evolutionary laboratory. When animals and plants become trapped on islands, mountain peaks, or isolated ecosystems, they begin adapting to their unique environments in ways that produce some of the planet’s most remarkable species.
These endemic creatures represent millions of years of specialized evolution, developing traits and behaviors found nowhere else on Earth. Their stories reveal how isolation shapes life in fascinating and often surprising ways.
