#Spiders like this beautiful garden spider, have a part to play in controlling populations of flies whilst also serving as prey to amphibians and birds.
Help them by creating wild spaces with long grasses, on which they can construct their webs.
#Earthworms are vital for healthy #soil and are food for many other animals.
Help them by #composting organic waste.

Lurking around the kelp forests, the leopard shark has spotted patches that camouflage it against the many shades and shapes in their habitat.

#NurseSharks have sensitive barbels on their snouts to feel for prey in the sandy seabed. These act just like whiskers, although they can probe around in search of a meal.
#Bullsharks share a common fish sense organ, the lateral line. This row of pressure sensitive organs goes from the head to the tail and allows this shark to detect movements even in murky water.
