The “Sudoku” below has 16 clues and two solutions. However the two solutions appear to only swap around the 8s and 9s. Since there are no 8s or 9s in the original puzzle does this mean the solution is unique?
It is believed that there is no Sudoku with 16 clues i.e. with a unique solution. It was mathematically proven in 2012 by Gary McGuire and his team that 17 is the minimum number of clues possible for a valid Sudoku puzzle to have a unique solution; puzzles with 16 or fewer clues cannot have only one solution.
What about this puzzle?

These days, we’re getting pretty creative about how we do it too. The latest idea? You can actually buy a symbolic piece of one of New Zealand’s most remote islands as part of the Auckland Island Restoration Project.
If you had a bit of spare cash, would you 'buy' into the project?
And maybe the bigger question — should we be looking at doing the same kind of thing for wildlife refuges on our main islands too?
