Save The World's Saddest Dolphins PSA
2nd Feb 2013, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)
Students of United World College of South East Asia have produced a PSA shedding light upon the atrocities RWS is committing towards the dolphins. They say “ACRES has numerously reiterated that dolphins are animals that cannot survive in captivity, as it causes a degree of stress that is lethal enough to kill. RWS has refused to comment on this, and we believe that this is an act of corporate exploitation of sentient beings. We made this PSA to spread awareness about the cause, and how importa...

Markos, The Cuban Slider
29th Jan 2013, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)
Meet Markos, who was lucky to be spotted after getting bitten by some other animal or getting caught in something sharp. We would never know his history, but thanks to the callers for rescuing him and calling us. Markos is a Cuban slider native to Cuba and introduced in some islands. Most likely released as an illegal pet here in Singapore, he already suffers from malnutrition, resulting in shell deformities. The injuries on his tail led to prolapse of organs which has been rectified after sutur...

"As a whole, macaques stand little chance against humans. But if the situation demands it, they do stand up. One has to respect them for that - and learn how not to trigger macaque revolts."
Being the most common monkey species in Singapore, you might just encounter long tailed macaques when you least expect it.
Read this article to better understand them and avoid any unnecessary conflict - http://goo.gl/guzFf

We just heard that a boy got bitten after going too close to a monkey. He was reported to be only 5 metres away, taking photos of the monkey.
If you see monkeys, please don't make eye contact with them, or bare your teeth by smiling. These are threatening behaviours to a monkey.
While our green spaces are decreasing, the monkeys can still find food, please don't feed them. If you have fruit trees around, please harvest them soon, or request for National Parks Board to trim fruit trees by the ...

PIG VISION - The Journey Of Two Brothers
24th Jan 2013, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)
Which pig would you rather be? X15, or Jackpot?
Jackpot is a lucky pig: His home is a sanctuary, where he can live a long and happy piggy life!
Sadly, most pigs are not as lucky as Jackpot. Most spend their whole lives on factory farms being raised for meat, or being made to reproduce over and over again.
This eye-opening video exposes the difference between the way pigs are meant to and deserve to live, and the way most pigs are kept (and eventually slaughtered).
The only difference betwe...
