Comment[edit]

Why is flora being discussed on a fauna page? Perhaps the article should be simply changed to "Galapagos wildlife". Haligonian1 16:05, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestions for Improvement[edit]

I think before the headings "Fauna" and "Flora" are used it should be described what those words mean. I also think more can be added to each section. Maybe describe first marine life, then live on the island. Also I think each island can have vastly different wildlife on it, so maybe mention that. Just how I described first marine life then island do something similar with the plants. Maybe describe some common flowering plants and then some common non-flowering plants. Possibly mention tourism's affect on the wildlife. Just some advice! Shadooper (talk) 03:02, 27 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
