The Galápagos Islands are the only place in the world where you can find seafaring lizards. Marine iguanas go in the ocean in search of green and red algae, their favorite food. When they return to land, they gather together to warm up as fast as they can since they are ectothermic reptiles. —Gianna Haro, Naturalist
