Pages: 17 (including cover and credits). Sizes: A4 (210 × 297 mm) and US Letter (8.5 × 11 in), both PDFs included in one zip.

Printing: Print at 100% / actual size on A4 or US Letter. Inside pages use light backgrounds and print well in black and white; covers are dark, so start from page 2 to save ink. Cards: print double-sided, flipping on the long edge, on thin card.

Every fact is checked against named source pages (including Butterfly Conservation, Manx Wildlife Trust, the Natural History Museum, the Oxford University Museum of Natural History, Royal Botanic Gardens Kew, the US Forest Service, Britannica, the University of York and peer-reviewed research; checked 30 Oct 2026), and the sources are listed on each pack’s credits page. Facts that can change, such as species counts, trends and records, are printed with that date. Where sources give different figures, both are shown with their source. Photos are public domain or CC0 images via Wikimedia Commons; drawings, puzzles and layouts are REALLYBYTE’s own work. Not endorsed by any of these organisations.
