On Sunday 12 February 1809, Charles Robert Darwin was born; a British naturalist who would become famous for his contribution to science and theories of evolution. During 1829 while studying a Bachelor of Arts, he began eagerly collecting beetles, with some of his findings published in Stephens' Illustrations of British Entomology.
