Better Ways To Control Crow Numbers Than Culling Them, Says Acres After Bishan Crow Attacks
27th Feb 2023, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)

BETTER WAYS TO CONTROL CROWS THAN CULLING THEM Our Co-CEO Anbarasi Boopal responded to CNA on the recent spate of crow ‘attacks’ in Bishan, and appealed for #Singapore to think of "better ways to treat animals" : "…Crows are killed by placing them in plastic bags and pumping carbon dioxide into the bags, according to Ms Boopal. And this is “not humane euthanasia at all”, she said… "Using carbon dioxide in a plastic bag may be seen as a cost-effective way for contractors. However...

Monitor Lizard And Toad Get Stuck In Gluetrap. Glu..
15th Feb 2023, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)

MONITOR LIZARD AND TOAD GET STUCK IN #GLUETRAP Glue traps are used to trap and kill “pests”, but often end up trapping other animals too. Ironically, the monitor lizards actually HELP to control populations of "pests" by predating on them or scavenging on dead animal matter too preventing other scavengers. No animal should go through the suffering on glue traps! Snakes, monitor lizards and civets are examples of wild animals who eat certain animals for whom these sticky traps are laid. Pr...

Want To Truly Have Empathy For Animals? Stop Owning Pets | Troy Vettese
12th Feb 2023, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)

IS OWNING PETS ETHICAL? An interesting article which highlights the ills of the #petindustry and the cognitive dissonance between owning - and actually loving - animals. What do you think? Let us know in the comments! “Dogs lead lives of loneliness. Grey parrots die years earlier than their natural lifespans. And it is hard to fathom the boredom of pet fish…The animals are harmed from the outset, regardless of whether they are sourced from puppy mills, the wild, or artisanal inbreeders…...

5th Feb 2023, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)

15th DAY OF CNY - LET’S MAKE IT A GOOD ONE FOR RABBITS TOO! 🐰🍊 Thank you to everyone who came to our CNY open house last Saturday! Before the festivities come to an end, let's reflect on how we can make this Year of the Rabbit a good one for bunnies as well: 🐰Rabbits continue to be bred and sold in unethical ways. Let’s break the cycle: don’t buy rabbits from pet shops. Instead, you can foster or adopt from rescue organisations, if you’re ready for the responsibility. 💄Sad...

Commentary: Land-Strapped Singapore May Struggle To Fulfil The New Global Biodiversity Deal, But There Are Other Things It Can Do
15th Jan 2023, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)

ON CLIMATE CHANGE, COEXISTENCE AND MORE A good read by Audrey Tan on TODAY Online, sharing how we (#Singapore) can do better: on connectivity, #climatechange and coexistence with native wildlife. "For nature conservation efforts to truly take off in Singapore, society needs to learn how to better coexist with wildlife. Otherwise, nature conservation could lead to backlash, and put conservationists and #biodiversity managers in a bind. The poster child for this is the smooth-coated #otter tha...

13th Jan 2023, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)

FROM PARALYSES TO FREEDOM: KHABIB, THE WHITE-BELLIED SEA EAGLE Our heartfelt thanks to the kind folks at Nee Soon Camp who called for help and also named this eagle Khabib. Khabib was rescued in shock, after he flew into a wall and crashed from a great height. Our veterinary team Venisri Prithivi Raj and Alicia Wee quickly stabilised Khabib with fluids and rest. X-rays revealed that Khabib suffered spinal trauma that resulted in paralysis in both legs. Thankfully as a young eagle, Khabib acc...

Still Using Glue Traps?. Glue Traps Are Widely Use..
6th Jan 2023, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)

STILL USING GLUE TRAPS? Glue traps are widely used to kill rodents, but they don’t eliminate #rodent problems, as the root cause often does not get addressed. They are ineffective, inhumane and dangerous. It may seem like a quick fix - visually showing you the rats who have been biting through your food containers, 'spreading' germs and destroying your bins have been caught (and killed after much suffering). But if they were so effective, why are they still being so widely sold and used? H...

2nd Jan 2023, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)

SIX #POACHING CASES IN ONE MONTH Hougang St 61, Jalan Jelita, Yishun St 51, Sunrise Terrace, Telok Blangah road and Bedok Reservoir view. From bulbuls & junglefowl to magpie robins and hanging parrots. You simply cannot catch a trend here, from condo to landed property to construction site to HDB estate. The only big consolation here is – the fantastic public who will observe, document and blow the whistle, or even take action by simply removing an abandoned live illegal trap in a public a...

24th Dec 2022, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)

KERMIT, THE BABY MONITOR LIZARD APPEALS FOR RESPONSIBLE PRACTICES Sometime in November 2022, we rescued a very beautiful young water monitor lizard (we named 'Kermit'), with a #fishhook lodged inside. It took a #surgery to remove the hook. Thankfully Kermit made full recovery and was released back to the #wild in a couple of weeks. Even though this sounds like a happy ending, ACRES wishes to reduce the need for rescue through awareness and action. This and many more such fish hook rescues co...
