Still stumped on 34 & 56

wigger99 kindly gave me the following clue for 34: Sounds like an evolutionist's pet? but I cant work it out

No idea for 56

[Ouzel]

34. Named after Charles ... who sailed on HMS Beagle
56. Anagram of Cleo Up ... sorry, can't think of another clue !

Thank you so much for your help Ouzel I've got 56 but for the life of me I can't find a darwin dog for 34

[Ouzel]

It's a 31 or 60 - rather than a dog - hope this helps.

On the second survey voyage the young naturalist Charles Darwin was on board, and his work made HMS BEAGLE one of the most famous ships in history.
