Cheese&Chats: Alfred Russel Wallace and the Wallace Line with Ian Burnet

This months topic: Alfred Russel Wallace and the Wallace Line with Ian Burnet

Exploring the faunal boundary between Asia and Australia

The voyage of Alfred Russel Wallace caused him to realise that the Lombok Strait in Indonesia represents the biogeographical boundary between the fauna of Asia and those of Australasia, and it was his idea of the ‘survival of the fittest’ that forced Darwin to publish his landmark work On the Origin of Species.

Join us for an evening of insight into Alfred Russel Wallace and the Wallace Line as told by Traveler, historian, and author Ian Burnet.
