How did Darwin's voyage on the HMS Beagle help him develop the concept of natural selection?

Darwin and the Beagle

On his travels he found many species of animals that were similar but different, even though they were not in the same environment.

I suggest you read Darwin's book On the Origin of Species, or pick up a good book on Darwin. There are also books specifically about his time on the Beagle.
