Charles Darwin Coloring Page

Darwin loved collecting beetles, rocks and shells as a boy. At 22 he joined the HMS Beagle on a voyage around the world that lasted almost five years. Along the way he studied animals and fossils in South America and on the Galápagos Islands.

It took him over twenty years to publish On the Origin of Species in 1859, which explained how living things change over time through natural selection. He was born on February 12, 1809, the very same day as Abraham Lincoln.
