A newspaper article that is about something that would be interesting at any time rather than news which tends to be time-sensitive. These articles may be connected to news stories, but can also stand alone. For example, a feature article might discuss the loss of biodiversity currently underway in ecosystems around the world, or describe the way in the increasing trend for humans to live in cities and suburbs rather than on farms in the countryside might affect people's views on animal rights or the need for conservation of wild places.
