The Dead Whale Selfie: #inappropriate or #harmless?

Posted on February 13, 2016 by Howl • Leave a comment

The selfie. Most of us would be lying if we said that we have not taken the odd selfie for whatever reason, as vain and self indulgent as they do seem. But is choosing to document and share the death of an animal in this manner completely disrespectful or actually, an acceptable and valid format … Continue reading →

Let’s Talk Climate Change

Posted on December 23, 2015 by Howl • 4 Comments

We need no further research to inform us that climate change is happening and this global issue requires a fast and decisive response. So why is the UK, a country once considered to be the leader on climate change internationally, moving backwards? We became one of the first countries to produce a legally binding national … Continue reading →

Hands Off the Ban!

Posted on July 14, 2015 by Howl • Leave a comment

On Wednesday 15th July the UK government is allowing a free vote on whether to repeal the Hunting Act. MPs will be voting on whether to let a pack of dogs “flush out” foxes, rather than just the two allowed now. This is a tactical amendment and is an underhand way of repealing Labour’s 2004 … Continue reading →

How to tell who’s been nibbling your nuts

Posted on November 19, 2014 by Howl • Leave a comment

Originally posted on Wild South:
Hazel nuts are popular with many small mammals (our native dormouse, muscardinus avellenarius, is called the hazel dormouse for a reason). And the way a nut is opened can tell you who’s eaten it. This is particularly handy for telling if dormice are present, as you’re very unlikely to see…

Posted on November 7, 2014 by Howl • 1 Comment

A little while ago Howl attended a British Mammal Workshop, a two-day course providing a fantastic opportunity for young naturalists to discover the elusive and oft-neglect world of British mammals. This fantastic opportunity was run by A Focus on Nature, a small committee of young conservationists and one individual, Peter Cooper took on the role … Continue reading →

Lost Time is Never Found Again

Posted on September 16, 2014 by Howl • Leave a comment

Time is our most precious commodity; there is never quite enough of it as there are a vast amount of tasks to complete in order to become successful.

Look Before You Leap

Posted on September 2, 2014 by Howl • Leave a comment

We all know Frogs are masters at jumping, but did you know that some species still struggle to land both smoothly and gracefully? Naively, I assumed that all frogs jump in a similar manner. To me, a jump is a jump.  However, after further research I discovered that this form of locomotion is subdivided into … Continue reading →

“Bye Mr Narwhal” (Elf 2003)

Posted on January 10, 2014 by Howl • Leave a comment

During my first year of university one of my tasks was to write a series of short blogs. Whilst trying to organise the mess that is currently my desktop, I found one of my favourite and thought I’d share… It wasn’t until I watched Elf one Christmas (a fair few years ago might I add) … Continue reading →
