«Las islas Galápagos: Un arca de Noé en el Pacífico» is the nature essay by Irenäus Eibl-Eibesfeldt published by Alianza Editorial in paperback.
The naturalist recounts his expeditions through the Galápagos, an archipelago he compares to a Noah's ark in the Pacific. He describes its contrasts, between arid landscapes and tropical forest, and observes the behavior of its singular fauna: giant tortoises, sea lions, cormorants, pelicans, albatrosses, finches and iguanas.
It belongs to the El Libro de Bolsillo collection (no. 578, Humanities section). Translation by M.ª José Sobejano with revision by Julio Álvarez Sánchez; edition with black-and-white illustrations.
Aimed at those interested in nature, ornithology and scientific outreach on fauna and animal behavior.
