UNM professor contributes to major publication about Galapagos tortoise


Cyler Conrad, an adjunct assistant professor of Archaeology at The University of New Mexico, recently co-authored a chapter in a book called

Cyler Conrad, adjunct assistant professor, Archaeology.
Conrad’s chapter, co-authored with James Gibbs from State University of New York and the Galapagos Conservancy, is called
The era of exploitation: 1535-1959 and explores the tragic hunt of the creatures to near-extinction by mariners, colonists, and collectors.
