520 | _a"Four waves of invasion have shaped this once-isolated place. First, the Canaries became a landing site for wayward wildlife from the far-off mainland. Next came the first human occupiers, the Guanches. Then came the conquerors, the Europeans, who used the islands as stepping stones for more distant exploration, while also colonizing the archipelago. Finally, modern-day travelers such as myself constitute a fourth wave of invasion--people who each year descend upon the islands in the millions via daily flights, ships, and ferries." (ZOOGOER) This article describes the human history and biological diversity of the Canary islands. | ||
