Scientists think that 334,000 men and women should go for 20 minutes walk every day and can lower the risk of death!!!
Also scientists found that a fifth of the study group did no exercise at work or in there own time!!!
The researchers say that in 2008,9.2million people in Europe died and that 337,000 of these deaths were due to obesity!!!
If you would exercise for 20 minutes a day you would survive 8 months longer!

Excuse to go to the Park !!
Just 10 minutes in the park every day can make you happier and healthier. Scientists have researched and found that spending a short time in the park everyday can make you less stressed and less sad.
This is a good excuse to get your parents to take you to the park for a play. Miss Dale likes to have a go on the swings and she feels much less grumpy afterwards 🙂
I like swinging on the monkey bars, it always makes me laugh!!!
Hope to see you at the park soon!!

Forgotten Species Of Scotlands Sea
Fossils Donated by amateur collectors have helped experts to identify a previously unknown species!!
A large group of researchers led by the University of Edinburgh have been looking at fossils found in Scotland.
Fossils of the new species were discovered more than 50 years ago on the isle of Skye by Brian Shawcross. Ichthyosaur, which were creatures similar to dolphins. They lived in the sea and ate fish and small reptiles. This creature lived 170 MILLION YEARS AGO !!!!! At that time the Isle of Skye was joined on to the rest of the UK.
In honour of its finder, the species was named in the Scottish Journal of Geology as Dearcmhara shawcrossi. ( The first part is Scottish Gaelic for marine lizard )
