October News!
Soon the staff at The British Wildlife Wiki will be heading to Sea Life Adventure in Southend-on-Sea. They will be taking lots of photographs they would not usually be able to take of all kinds of marine life.
New Feature on the wiki
Our favourite contributor 'Purple Centipede' has come up with a good way to let people know when certain invertebrates are active in the UK. He is making timelines which coinside with the Distribution maps that Thomas (XCF) started with. Check out his new idea here.

The Wiki in 2012
Hey Everyone! The Wiki is coming up to it's second birthday soon on the 17th November as the previous post outlines.
This Post is about changes and content coming to the wiki in the new year.
We will be uploading bat calls and bird songs that we have recorded (they are still in the editing stage at the moment). There will be lots more photos as well as some more anatomical diagrams. We also hope to double the size of the wiki next year so when the wiki reaches it's 3rd birthday, it will have 4000 pages!
So why not get editing on the wiki today?
