Threats such as climate change, introduced species, diseases, pollution, and fishery activity all put the Galapagos penguin at immediate risk of population decline. Your adoption of a Galapagos penguin will help us carry out annual monitoring of this species, in partnership with the Galapagos National Park Directorate.
In the heart of the Galapagos Islands, a tiny, unexpected hero emerged in 2002 that would change the course of conservation. The Australian ladybug (Novius cardinalis), small in size but immensely effective, became a crucial ally in the fight against an invasive insect that threatened to devastate the endemic flora of these islands. This is the story of how science, innovation, and nature itself came together to help preserve one of the most valuable biological treasures on the planet.
