Test the outer edges of what you think you know, Radiolab is supported by listeners like you. Alan Alda on the new yorker radio hour from W N. Y. So they went island by island, took a little bit of blood from all these different tortoises. You can just take the best pinta tortoises you find and put those on Penta and you know over the next 200,000 years they will evolve into a pinto tortoise and it could be a bit different than the past pinta tortoise because evolution and mutation and all that doesn't occur the same. The tough question now is if we concede that we can't any longer save all the species, then does that put us in the situation of having to decide which ones will save and which ones we won't, And do we have any basis for making those kinds of decisions? I thought you were gonna say people, it was kind of a collaboration. Scientists had to find clever ways to help the turtles on the island! Our newsletter comes out I like to think of it as a kind of Darwin finch. Which means at least 100 years. You can go, I don't know the depths of the Impenetrable jungle, It's been affected by human activity. He seemed to really like to keep to himself. In any case for about 40 years. Now of course there are no female tortoises on pinta but they thought you know, maybe a zoo somewhere private collection has one because you really never know. We've done so much on the show since last summer. That's really the classical definition of a species. But that's the only possible the first day. But if the hybrids do have a fitness advantage and if they survive, we may be witnessing in hyperspeed the creation of an entirely new species. Yes. But that's four generations of tortoises, not rats. One male tortoise, maybe 50 years old. And then fishermen started making a killing fishing sea cucumber because there was this huge demand. And he says he would go on these dives. 24 June 2012. So for starters they put up all these traps. And the thing to know is that even though these are three different species, they're actually really hard to tell apart visually. But Darwin didn't consider this possibility. The ideal judas goat, if you will is a goat that would search for and be searched for and that would never get pregnant. The interview originally from a podcast called The Relentless Picnic, but presented by one of Lulus current podcast faves, The 11th is part of an episode of mini pep talks designed to help us all get through this cold, dark, second-pandemic-winter-in-a-row. Indeed. 23 Weeks 6 Days That's exactly how he sees it. So thank you very much for the interview. They've got to limit their catch. It's hot, it's bright. They tagged, we collected genetic samples, got some D. N. A. And so the technique that we would use was you would fire up your helicopter, you fly around, you'd find some goats, capture goats, capture them live and then come back back to base camp, offload them and you put a radio collar on them and you throw them back on the island. Galpagos - Radiolab Radiolab Investigates Our Magical Organs They weren't sure they'd eventually name him George lonesome George. Well the honeymoon's over Galapagos. You know, there's green mangroves, black lava flows and pink flamingos. Even if they could for who knows maybe a million years. This is to control the population. You know, they eat goats in africa, you know, why don't you get lions on there? They don't know the exact date. So carl kept mulling this problem, what would it take to basically make you know, the perfect judas goat. He like points at the cars in front and behind as if like dude, seriously, you see how many of us there are. This is the place where Darwin began to develop his theory of evolution and it's the place 100 70 year or maybe 280 years later where our producer tim howard landed wearing fishnets and a bad brains t shirt too fine to find a very different landscape than what Darwin saw. And more importantly, can we? She says, you have islands with massive volcanoes and forests, tree ferns that grow, you know, well above a human sight. So anything you can do helps us thank you for listening and being part of this journey of telling all of these stories about our wild, crazy big small world. Hey, this is radio lab.

And that's paul Watson, founder of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society. WebThe Galapagos Islands are famous for inspiring Charles Darwin to form his Theory of Evolution based on the biodiversity he'd observed there. And this is what I think is really. Uh but they ultimately were infertile. You have to find all those other goats circle real low, you fly around them, round them up, try and get them in a single group and then They start picking off the goats one x 1 x one and they're actually videos online where you see these packs of goats running for their lives.

Oh my God. They showed me where the traps are trapped hanging from a tree here and you see them actually all over santa cruz. And those are really interesting ideas, but at some point they're gonna get hungry and they're going to start eating all the other things that you know, you treasure, like the occasional tourists in any case after endless planning and meetings took eight years, I think they commence project Isabella. And this is the place of course where Darwin landed in 1835. You know, they basically feed on the blood of the baby birds. But it's an average. Nearly 200 years later, the Galpagos are undergoing rapid changes that continue to pose and perhaps answer critical questions about the fragility and They learned that this sound means, so the goats start hiding so they're going to bushes, they won't move, They learn to stand under a tree holding their breath. The flies spreading island to island. So they called around offered huge cash rewards. I think it might have been the worst, We went up into treetops. But compared to the medium tree finch is they are because the medium tree finch is were on the brink of extinction. So they're all kind of converting over into the tourism economy.

This is Radio Lab, and today elements. Well, there's there's a couple of clues that say maybe, Yeah, for example, when you look in the nests, they seem to have fewer parasites and they seem to have more babies that survive 15%. Can I get you to introduce yourself? Addeddate. Yeah. Do you remember the song types? Not on Penta that had a lot of Penta D. N. A. I remember very clearly the moment was very very exciting. Okay, so quick context, Galapagos Islands, cluster of islands way off the coast of Ecuador in the Pacific 19 bigger islands, bunch of smaller ones. So if you can better automate that and leverage intelligence to make sense. But I mean in the bigger picture, you can make the argument that humans now affect every square meter of the earth. I said it was impossible. You had plants re emerging, you had trees growing back and in a really short period of time. You just put your hands around. Did a genetic analysis and found something they never expected a group of tortoises. She's a researcher at the Charles Darwin foundation. The medium tree finch has patrol that boundary. Ariane wack pat, Walters and molly Webster With help from Bowen wong. And based on that genetic data the small tree finch is not doing great. Three tree finch species, the small, the medium and the large, and we went out and we set up our miss nets and we caught the birds and we measured them. We talk about going from weeks to hours, two minutes, two seconds at its core artificial intelligence for me has always been about decision support. And basically when you have only judas goats meeting up with other judas goats, then you can say the goats have been eliminated, you're done A point, they got to at least on Isabella in mid 2006. I want this to work. I didn't say it was silly. Oh yes.

We found this on 13 islands. It's kind of late, the sun is just starting to set. We are dedicating a whole hour to the Galapagos archipelago, the place that inspired Darwins theory of evolution and natural selection. Almost every day during that time fraser would fly over Isabela island, two guys with two shooters either side of the helicopter, what you do is so you come across and you're flying along and you might see one goat says you follow that goat as it ran away until it joined its friends.

That is the sound of a tortoise breathing. The finches look similar but their beaks were always a little bit different and this gets them thinking what if it isn't the way that everybody always says, what if God didn't create every single species in the beginning and leave them unchanged? Radiolab The test-writers definitely listen to this podcast to get ideas for science passages The science passages you see on the LSAT often have to do with evolution, psychology, and interaction between humans and nature. So in 2009 they come up with a stopgap. It rolls over this forest and it catches in the branches of the trees. It's like having a program on you over and over and over again, it gets worse. You know, like nature in its purest form. I worked for island conservation and I'm based here in the Galapagos islands carl's actually the guy who showed me those tortoises, it was just a, it was a barren landscape, barren, barren grounds. We covered disability and access in a way that was totally new for us. It shows you the power. That was definitely not what I thought you were gonna say. So we we go outside. One I particularly love is Radiolab, the NPR mix of nerdy science and audio bombast. Earlier this summer, its gregarious hosts Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich produced an episode entirely on the Galapagos Islands. We all know the Galapagoss role as a laboratory of evolution. And what happens is that as soon as birds start laying eggs, mother flies swoop in and lay their eggs on the base of the nest underneath the finch eggs. The warbler finch is the smallest of the Darwin's finches. But I go up to him and I yell at him, who's your candidate and he said, I am a candidate? On the one hand, the tortoises needed help. And then you wait instinctively that loan go will go and find other goats. And so you end up flying around in an expensive helicopter, not fighting any goes Now the way we deal with that is an interesting one. So something is happening.

But here's what they do know. So that had acted as a barrier basically with goats on one side tortoises on the other. Two females that sort of looked like George but weren't quite the same species and we put them with George to see if we could get him to breed, he never did wasn't interested. So they thought maybe he needs a pinto lady. Darwins 5 weeks on Galapagos pushed him to develop his theory of evolution and thats also why when we think of evolution we think of the Galapagos and in Just going to meet you at the airport. And as he went island to island, he started noticing that there were all these creatures that were really similar to each other but also a little bit different. And the pinot tortoise went extinct. Hello? He says that when he first got to the Galapagos in the eighties, he couldn't believe that the place was real. You know, until the originals are ready. It has a terrible common name in english. Another possibility is sterile insect technique sterilized male flies and introduce them back into the wild so that the female mates with a sterile fly and obviously doesn't produce fertile eggs.
