Ecologists seek to expand Galapagos Marine Reserve The Ecuadoran president is to decide on a proposal to expand the islands’ marine reserve, seen as vital to protect the world heritage site from the fishing industry By Dan Collyns / The Guardian Strolling along a beach dotted with sea lion pups and their mothers barking at one another, utterly unconcerned by your presence, is a singularly magical experience. On the trail leading to the shore on tiny Seymour Island, noisily courting blue-footed boobies and frigate birds are equally unruffled by the presence of humans. Getting up close to the natural world without disturbing it seems as refreshingly easy on the Galapagos Islands today as when Charles Darwin visited on HMS Beagle in 1835.
