Wild Gangs

Life can be tough at times, but it gets much easier when you have friends to watch your back. Animals from across the natural world band together for all sorts of reasons. Whether it's to protect the home and family, to find food, win a mate or even go to war, it's always handy to have someone you can trust in your corner. From the classic pack of wolves stalking prey in tandem to the bullish lionfish mobs terrorising all other fish on the reef – when animals form gangs things soon get wild!

Urban Warriors

As human populations grow, so does our footprint, and more of the natural world is gradually paved over, displacing animals from their natural homes.

Giants of Europe

Once upon a time, huge beasts roamed Europe. But these magnificent creatures were driven out by our greed, and we are only now starting to realise how poor our landscapes are without them. Mercifully, this realisation has started to fuel an exciting change of fortunes for Europe's wildlife.

Bucketlist Europe

Europe is a densely packed continent, with some 700 million residents living across 50 countries. It's famed for its ancient cities and civilisations, but is sometimes overlooked when it comes to the natural world. But there's no doubt that the continent is a treasure trove of natural beauty, a mosaic of landscapes each filled with their own unique animal communities. If you were planning a bucket list trip of the natural wonders of Europe, you'd only have to ask yourself one question: where would you start?

Spots and Stripes

Whether spots or stripes, markings can be used for anything from communication to cooling. What look like standout fashion statements to us can help animals vanish completely into a landscape. The design possibilities are endless, and vary to suit the terrain and geography. Whatever their remarkable uses, spots and stripes adorn some of the most iconic animals in the natural world. Camouflage or decoration, we can thank both spots and stripes for handing these creatures their unique and majestic beauty.

Glorious Grasslands

Savanna, prairie, meadow: grassland goes by many names. Seas of green, dominated by one of the most successful plant species. It's so hardy and productive that it can survive flooding, drought and fires, managing to feed vast animal communities. What's more, it's not just a food source, it's also a theatre many of nature's most dramatic spectacles play out in this breathtaking wilderness. We literally need grasslands to breathe, but they're a vital resource for some of our most exciting wildlife!
