Why color charles darwin pictures?
Charles Darwin was an English naturalist who is considered one of the most influential scientists in history. His theory of evolution by natural selection has been the basis of modern biology and has had a profound impact on our understanding of the natural world.
Darwin was born in Shrewsbury, England, in 1809. He studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh, but soon realized that he was not interested in medical practice.
In 1831, Darwin embarked on a five-year voyage around the world, where he detailed the wildlife on the Galapagos Islands, which later led him to develop his theory of evolution. When we read about that, everyone at Coloring Together was amazed, so we thought you had to know it too.
