Conservationists turn poisoners (January 2013)

Synopsis

The Galapagos Islands are the original home to the famous giant tortoises, but for the past few years the tortoises have had to be bred elsewhere because of the destructive rat population. The rats were introduced by buccaneers and have been warring with the island’s indigenous species ever since. Conservationists are trying to eradicate the rat population and other new species introduced by humans in order to return the island to its original state.
