Who is Charles Darwin?
What was Darwin famous for? | What did Darwin discover? | What is the theory of evolution?
He was a scientist born in Shropshire, who, when studying birds on a tropical island, went: "Huh? The beaks are bigger on this island's birds than another island's birds? I wonder why this is?". He then had a 💡 lightbulb moment 💡 which led him to discovering and developing his Theory of Evolution.
Darwin figured out that plants and animals, over thousands of years, would naturally adjust to their environment. For instance, how some dinosaurs developed extra long necks in order to eat leaves at the tops of trees.
