[00:02.75]Unit 19 Communication Language Awareness 1 4

[00:08.70]Lonesome Male of the Galapagos

[00:11.60]Jo Tuckman on the Galapagos Islands

[00:14.83]Celebrity is not usually a characteristic

[00:17.49]associated with middle-aged 2 giant tortoises

[00:20.39]from the Galapagos Islands.

[00:22.26]However, few have been so influenced

[00:24.68]by humanity as Lonesome George.

[00:27.25]Fame came to George in 1971

[00:29.74]when he was discovered on the tiny uninhabited

[00:32.14]island of Pinta.

[00:33.86]He is known to be the last surviving member

[00:36.40]of his sub-species

[00:38.04]but it is hoped that George will pass

[00:39.89]on his genes 3 to a new generation.

[00:42.73]B The numbers of Galapagos tortoises

[00:45.06]are said to have begun their decline

[00:46.74]when it was realized

[00:47.66]that they could supply excellent fresh meat

[00:49.32]for passing ships,

[00:51.45]because they were know to be able to survive

[00:53.63]for six months without food and water.

[00:56.65]Nevertheless, it was the effect of the goats

[00:58.83]introduced to the Galapagos

[01:00.33]by the early settlers

[01:01.84]that are understood to have destroyed

[01:03.62]the ecological 4 balance

[01:05.03]on the islands and the livelihood 5

[01:07.83]of George's clan 6.

[01:08.13]
