Galápagos Islands 2022

In less than six months, a one-of-a-kind Galápagos Islands habitat will open at the Houston Zoo.

Ahead of the April 2023 opening, KPRC 2 meteorologist Anthony Yanez got to travel to the Islands with team members from the Houston Zoo to learn about the animals and to meet the people working to save them.
