Animal Adaptations: Identifying Traits

Charles Darwin is arguably one of the most important naturalists and biologists in history. He advanced a theory of evolution based on natural selection. Natural selection is how animal populations change and adapt through generations. Darwin is most remembered for his 5-year journey around the world where he studied different plants and animals. This journey was in 1831. On November 24, 1859, he published his book, On the Origin of Species , which detailed his theory using evidence he accumulated on this journey.
