The Andes mountains continue to grow and evolve and are home to a
rich tapestry of environments.
When this great spine-like mountain range rose from the sea, it
created a new continent and a bridge that joined North and South
America, allowing flora and fauna from each to mix and diversify.
Today, the Andes continue to grow and evolve and are home to a rich
tapestry of environments, including the largest ice field outside
the poles, a desert where penguins nest and vertical mile-high
geysers where flamingos huddle for warmth.
