A mythical and ghostly creature has appeared in the wilds of the Scottish Highlands. A rare white stag, from the red deer species, is believed to be among just a tiny handful living in Britain, according to a conservation group. White stags are seen as a magical and powerful force in many mythologies and the John Muir Trust is now keeping the stag's location secret for fear of poachers. picked by AutumnLotus 8 months ago tags ghost-like white stag scottland mythical ghostly |

Welcoming new twins into the world is always a momentous event. But when brothers Ryan and Leo arrived they had an extra surprise for their parents - they were born with different coloured skin.

Astronomers have found that a supernova discovered last year was caused by two colliding white dwarf stars. The white dwarfs were siblings orbiting each other. They slowly spiraled inward until they merged, touching off a titanic explosion.
