Last year it was revealed that banknotes produced by the Bank of England were to get their first major redesign in more than 50 years – and they asked for the public’s help.

44,000 people had their say on what themes and images they’d like to see on their notes.

The majority of people picked nature as their preferred theme.

As a result, the Bank of England announced they would come up with a shortlist of wildlife, from birds to animals, so they could put a vote to the public in summer.

They have now chosen 18 species from around the UK that could appear on future £5, £10, £20 and £50 notes.

The animals have been split into three groups:

Mammals – Bottlenose dolphin, brown hare, European hedgehog, grey seal, pine marten, red fox.

Birds – Atlantic puffin, barn owl, common kingfisher, Eurasian curlew, great spotted woodpecker, white-tailed eagle.

Insects, fish and amphibians – Atlantic salmon, basking shark, buff-tailed bumblebee, common frog, emperor dragonfly, marsh fritillary butterfly.

People can vote for up to six of their favourite creatures before votes close next month.

However, it will be down to the Bank of England governor, Andrew Bailey, to make the final decision.
