As part of our campaign to save the Philippine Pangolin from extinction, we’re giving two lucky winners their choice of FREE goodies from our limited edition “save the pangolins” range! Join in now to spread the word about our vital campaign, help us save the pangolins, and be in with a chance of winning a prize. 🔗 iapwa.org/save-the-pango… Did you know that pangolins are one of the world's most trafficked mammals? Despite a population decline of up to 95%, the Philippine Pangolin is STILL being hunted and sold on the black market for their meat and scales. That’s why we need to gather 10,000 signatures on our petition as soon as possible. We’re urging authorities in the Philippines to escalate their efforts to save the pangolins, but we can’t do it without you. Please: ✍️ Click here to sign our petition: iapwa.org/donate/pangoli… 🎁 And enter our giveaway to spread the word: iapwa.org/save-the-pango… Every single signature and share gets us one step closer to saving the pangolins. The giveaway closes at 11:59pm on 20th April 2025, so don’t delay! 🕒

Word of the day is ‘mumpsimuses’ (16th century): those who insist they are right and apportion blame to others without looking at themselves.

@FionasWildLife @BBCRadio2 Just emailed him now to tell him that I'm one of his constituents and I don't want Boris back as PM! 😡

@BritishSpiders That's great, thank you. She's still on the bumblebee this morning and now has a woodlouse caught in the web as well.

@Rachel_5haw The spider is a Noble False Widow (Steatoda nobilis)

Drama in the garden! This spider has caught itself a bumblebee feast 🕷🐝 @BritishSpiders can you help with ID?

A note to the U.K. Press. We at CRS will not be commenting this year about “the plague” of Craneflies “that is about to descend” on the U.K. Why? Because it’s not & you’ll print what you want anyway. You dramatise a natural annual occurrence, they harm no one, the end. Thanks.

@FalcondaleJan Think its more when the house spiders get tangled in the webs. Shame you don’t have them.
