Charles Darwin is considered the father of evolution, which he believed
took place through natural selection. The idea of evolution has
been around long before Darwin's time, but his theory of natural
selection was revolutionary. One of his most famous studies took place
in the Galapagos Islands where he collect more than ten different types
of finches from different areas on the islands, these birds appeared
very similar with the most noticible differences in the shape and
structure of their beaks. Darwin concluded that the differences in the
beaks were to help the finch obtain the type of food that was available
in the parts of the islands where they inhabited. To find out more
