KEEP THEM WILD AND FREE: HELP US WIPE OUT WILDLIFE CRIME
Remember this severely emaciated black-tufted marmoset who was abandoned in Marine Crescent last year?
Black-tufted marmosets are tree-dwellers, residing primarily in the Brazilian rainforests. They live in close-knit family units, with parents and older siblings raising young ones together.
This abandoned marmoset was likely sold into the exotic pet trade at a young age. They took away her family support, so essential to this species...

STUDENTS MAKING A DIFFERENCE FOR ANIMALS!

NATIVE WILDLIFE RESCUE ROUNDUP: 6TH MARCH 2015
This week: three of our latest rescues, and a new face at the ACRES Wildlife Rescue Centre!
1. Outside working hours, our staff members may still encounter animals who need a little help. Spiderman, a white-vented mynah (top left), is one of them: he was tangled up in twine and got stuck among some branches, unable to move or fly. It took us a while to carefully remove all the twine, and then Spiderman was all set to fly away!
2. Bean (top ri...

OUR WILD NEIGHBOURS: WILD BOAR
We’re very lucky in Singapore to share our island home with a huge variety of wild animals, although many of these animals are rarely encountered and remain somewhat of a mystery to many people.
We’ll be sharing information about our fascinating wild neighbours every Wednesday, so that we can start to understand them better, starting with wild boars!
Wild boars are medium-sized animals. They live in groups (called sounds), and they are usually nocturnal, bein...

BE A CHANGEMAKER: JOIN THE CHONG PANG PUBLIC FORUM ON ANIMAL PROTECTION POLICIES
It’s fantastic that nowadays there are so many groups rescuing animals. This work is important but our ultimate aim must be to eradicate the need for such rescues. To really move forward for the animals, we need to solve the root causes of animal abuse/suffering, and one way we can achieve this is through changes at policy level.
Join this year’s event to learn about the positive progress for animals that occu...

ROSSA’S RESCUE
Everyone can play a part in helping and protecting our native wildlife. Many times, all it takes is just a touch of compassion and initiative.
When a group of construction workers spotted Rossa on their first day back at work after Chinese New Year, she was lying in the middle of a construction site at Rifle Range Road and obviously in a bad way. So they called the ACRES Wildlife Rescue Hotline.
Rossa was covered with sand, severely dehydrated and hypoglycaemic. Inflammation o...
