In this photo released by the Galapagos National Park, lava flowing down the northeastern flank of the Cerro Azul volcano on the Isabela island, the largest of the Galapagos Islands, is seen Friday, May 30, 2008. Park official Oscar Carvajal told that as many as four lava flows "have consumed a lot of vegetation," but do not pose a threat to the famed Galapagos tortoises.
