## Resource

Your daily kids news podcast. Fab Four remain in World Cup semis; Japan’s bear problem; Neil the Seal heads back to sea; and the world’s fastest spider. After weeks of thrilling football, only four teams remain in the World Cup! England, Argentina, France and Spain are just two wins away from lifting the biggest trophy in world football. As Japan's population shrinks, wild bears are moving into abandoned houses near forests. After weeks of causing chaos, Neil the elephant seal has finally waddled back into the ocean. Australia's huntsman spider has been named the fastest spider in the world, sprinting at up to 13 km/h. For the full episode transcript, click here.
