The Galapagos Islands of North America
- "The California Channel Islands are rightly called 'the Galapagos Islands of North America'. The largest, Santa Cruz Island, holds more than 60 plant and animal species found nowhere else on Earth." - quote from Graham Chisholm, Executive Director of the Nature Conservancy, found on pg. 2 of the Nature Conservancy's Spring/Summer 2004 California Update newsletter.
