Sir David Attenborough’s new BBC series Kingdom has captured extraordinary moments from Zambia’s Luangwa Valley — including a lion saving a pregnant hyena from wild dogs. Filmed over five years, the series follows lions, hyenas, leopards, and wild dogs as they battle for survival. Executive producer Mike Gunton said: “Only nature could write a story like this.” Narrated by Attenborough, Kingdom features both tender and dramatic scenes — from newborn lion cubs to a wild dog pack rescuing one of their own from a crocodile. But it also highlights human impacts such as snare traps and habitat loss. Scientific consultant…
Jon Gorrotxategi’s last-minute goal sealed a dramatic 3–2 victory for Real Sociedad over Athletic Club in a Basque derby full of rain, chaos, and emotion.

Enzo Maresca criticised striker Liam Delap for his “very stupid” sending off and urged his Chelsea side to “grow up” after they nearly threw away a 3-0 lead in a wild 4-3 Carabao Cup win over Wolves. Chelsea stormed ahead with goals from Andrey Santos, Tyrique George, Estêvão and Jamie Gittens, but Wolves mounted a spirited second-half comeback, scoring three times through Tolu Arokodare and David Møller Wolfe’s brace.

A rare spider believed to be extinct in the UK has been found alive on the Isle of Wight after 40 years. The Aulonia albimana, nicknamed the “white-knuckled wolf spider” for the pale markings on its palps, was rediscovered at the National Trust’s Newtown nature reserve, an area only reachable by boat.

Lyons said: “I’ve seen 559 spider species in the British Isles and this one was by far the most exciting find.” Last recorded in 1985, the tiny 4mm spider thrives in short, open…
