4th Aug 2015, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)

HOW CECIL THE LION AND TILIKUM THE ORCA ARE HELPING TO EXPOSE AND END ANIMAL CRUELTY Here's an interesting feature on how the stories of individual animals, coupled with the use of social media, have opened the eyes of people all over the world to animal exploitation. “Cecil the lion and Tilikum the orca are two very different animals who wanted something very similar — to be free and without fear. Tilikum helped expose SeaWorld, and even though he is gone, Cecil has helped to expose the ...

BLOODSHORT GOES FOR A SWIM! As you might know, we’ve recently been busy revamping our snake enclosures and moving them into our quarantine. Bloodshort was one of the last snakes to have his enclosure relocated. Here’s a video of him enjoying and investigating his fresh new enclosure set up! We changed his water bowl to a tub to allow him to soak in the water. Blood pythons live in habitats close to or within water bodies such as rivers and swamps. Unfortunately, blood pythons are poached ...

Vegetables And Fruits That Make Great Meat Replacements

REPLACING MEAT WITH HEALTHY FRUIT AND VEG! Having one (or more) meat-free days every week- if you're not ready to take the full vegetarian plunge just yet- not only helps animals and the environment. It also means that will probably be eating lots of good, healthy stuff! Fruits and veggies can be used in lots of different ways to replace meat. Why not give some of these ideas a go, or try some of your own! Happy Meatless Monday! http://www.onegreenplanet.org/vegan-food/ vegetables-and-fruits...

TOGETHER, Let’s End Tiger Trade. The tiger (Panthera tigris) is the largest of the Asian cats. Tigers can weigh up to 660 pounds and can reach 10 feet in length.

It is shocking and disheartening that wild tiger numbers have decreased by 95% over the last century. Reasons include habitat loss and widespread poaching for variou...
