The Galapagos Islands in the Pacific Ocean were put on a list of endangered World Heritage sites by UNESCO on June 26 because of the growing pressure from tourism
Situated 1,000 kilometers off the coast of Ecuador, the 19 islands have a unique wildlife and were the first-ever site to be placed on UNESCO's list of World Heritage sites in 1978. (AP)
