Evolutionary theory provides a foundation for the study of physical anthropology. In this video, experts guide students through the development of Charles Darwin?s theory of evolution by natural selection. It also brings some of the main contributors to evolutionary theory to life. The theory of evolution by natural selection is illustrated using examples from the Gal?pagos Islands, monarch butterflies, peppered moths, and a special segment on the Channel Islands fox.
