40 SECONDS AT ACRES: DAY 28 OF #CIRCUITBREAKER
Nothing to see here! Just a #KingCobra found in the urban area, who got lost possibly following a prey. Did you know that they feed mainly on other snakes?
These majestic beautiful and shy animals are a rare sight, and we were equally surprised to find one in a residential area.

Back on 18th April, we share with you a video of our collared kingfisher nestling(https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=2376367 10926251). Here is a little update on how he is doing eversince.

40 SECONDS AT ACRES: DAY 10 OF CIRCUIT BREAKER
#Bats unfortunately fell under bad limelight during this #Covid19 period, as we handled triple the number of conflict complaints due to unfounded fear of contracting diseases from free flying undisturbed healthy population of wild bats.
What makes our day is when we come across such understanding callers who listen, learn, become aware and begin to appreciate them better - The residents never intended to harm them and removed the netting immediate...

40 SECONDS AT ACRES: DAY 8 OF #CircuitBreaker
During this Circuit Breaker period, not only have we been busy providing care for our resident animals, but also attending to wild animals in need out there. In this video, let's take a look at one of the most common snakes in Singapore - the common wolf snake. This individual was resting under a bag of soil when he was uncovered by the residents. The small snake was safely rescued and relocated to a safer habitat.

40 Seconds At Acres: Day 6 Of #circuitbreaker

40 SECONDS AT ACRES: DAY 6 OF #CircuitBreaker
Today's video is on simple dietary enrichment for some of our tortoises. Rescued wild animals living in captivity still have diverse needs. Enrichment plays an important role in meeting some of their needs, including exploratory feeding behaviour.
Each tortoise has a different personality and use the enrichment differently.
