1. Charles Darwin was born on February 12, 1809. He was a British naturalist who became famous
for his theories of evolution and natural selection. In South America, Darwin found that fossils of
extinct animals were similar to modern species. Many people were strongly opposed to the idea of
evolution because it conflicted with their religious beliefs. Throughout his life, Darwin was a
reserved, thorough, hard working scholar.
