Welcome to The Realm Of Nature and prepare to take a journey through the natural world. Every month there will be new articles about animals, plants and the habitats in which they live in from the extremes to those that live alongside us in our homes and gardens. Each issue will be released on the first Thursday of the month.
The Realm Issue 10 - Christmas Special! (December 2008)

Welcome to Issue 10 of The Realm! And I would like to start by wishing everyone a very MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR! To fit in with the wintery season we have a bumper issue filled with winter wildlife from polar bears to the gyrfalcon. Not to mention the lyrics from that all-time favourite Christmas song that introduced the most famous of Santa's reindeer to the world! It is important to remember your garden guests at this time of the year and so we have a few tips for catering for our feathered friends and check out our very own advent calendar to count down the days until Christmas! Not to mention our fun arcade to play some wintery games!

Welcome to Issue 9 of THE REALM! Prepare for a fright as we take a tour of the spooky side of nature exploring the myths behind some of the creatures that have became so entwined with horror and searching for the truth. Awaken those culinary skills with some recipes for pumpkins and find out how to grow your own pumkins ready for next year. Step into the world of the wolf as we seek the truth behind this misuderstood predator. Natures vampires abound with the new discovery of a vampire moth, not forgetting the infamous vampire bat and the blod-sucking finches of the Galapagos! Slip into the mysterious world of Africa's most feared snake, the black mamba, and see how this deadly snake compares to other venemous creatures. Perhaps a surprising addition to the collection of Halloween creatures, we investigate owls connection to this time of year and of course we can't forget those eight-legged mini-beasts - the spiders.
