Anonymous users2024-02-06From the end of the 15th century to the beginning of the 16th century, during the Age of Geographical Discoveries in Europe, many Spanish navigators came to this small island. The sudden visit of humans shattered the tranquility of this small island. At the same time, the livestock that followed the people to the island caused serious damage to the local ecology.
While surviving on the island, they gradually became wild and invaded the lives of the tortoises. Destroying the nests of the tortoises, devouring the eggs and hatchlings, and fighting for the tortoises' food and territory are simply the daily routine of these "outsiders". Despite their large size, tortoises are extremely gentle and herbivores, so they have no choice but to let them develop.
Over time, the number of tortoises has been decreasing. On the other hand, the reason for the drastic decline in the number of giant tortoises to the point of endangerment is due to the wanton killing of elephant tortoises.
At the end of the 17th century, these uninhabited islands became a refuge for pirates, who hid and settled here, and even became tortoises and other animals. Hunting, selling, trading, and looting became the horrors that hung over the Galapagos Islands for a while.

Anonymous users2024-02-05There are many reasons for the extinction of giant tortoises, among which is the mass killing of humans. As well as the destruction of the environment that led to its mass death, and secondly, the eggs of the tortoise are easily preyed upon by animals such as rats. As a result, the tortoise became extinct in 2000.

Giant tortoises belong to the reptiles, tortoise families, and tortoise genera, with a total of 12 species. It is the largest of the terrestrial turtle species, and is named for its thick legs that resemble elephant feet. Found in Africa, America, Asia and a number of islands in Oceania, it inhabits mountain marshes and meadows, and feeds on grasses, wild fruits and cacti, and likes to eat juicy green cacti the most.
The largest of these is the Galapagos tortoise, which can reach a length of up to 200,320 kilograms and is found on only nine small islands in the Galapagos archipelagos. Life expectancy is estimated to be up to 200 years.
Giant tortoises have been listed in the International Convention on Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, listed as endangered and strictly protected.

The reason why I say this is mainly that they are now in the domestic population has been very large, not that they have strong reproductive ability in the wild in our country but that there are too many artificial releases and abandonments, the most common ornamental turtle species in the market is Brazil, so people buy the most Brazil Once the owner has an accident or its disease, most of the owners will choose to abandon and release, so that the number of wild animals is increasing year by year Once in the wild, they will compete with native species for living space and materials, and will also prey on protozoa But the influence of this thing is almost minimal, its predatory ability is very limited, and there are only a handful of species it can kill in the wild In addition, some experts say that Brazil has had a devastating impact on the survival of native turtles and turtles, which is simply nonsense, and China's native turtles were caught by people, blaming Brazil, which is more ignorant and more shameful.
