PARAKEETS - FREE TO BE WILD AGAIN
19th Apr 2019, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)
PLEASE SUPPORT OUR 18TH CHARITY GALA
Birds form a major portion of our calls - from pigeons to mynahs, and parakeets to raptors. This clip features our rescued parakeets who were unable to perch properly and laying on their sides.
Caring for and rehabilitating birds is a complex process. But with YOUR donation, our caregivers and veterinary team will be able to give these animals a second chance to be free and wild again.
We need your help to continue helping these animals.

[WARNING: VIDEO MAY CAUSE DISTRESS]
THE REALITY OF PIGEON POISONING IN SINGAPORE

Some of us will throw some rice and bread for the pigeons, thinking you did the right thing.
But how many of us are ready to accept that this is what the current method of addressing pigeon population in #Singapore looks like in #reality?
Taken in Hougang this evening, this video shows how pigeons are poisoned after which live birds are thrown ...

Pisces The Malayan Water Monitor

As Pisces struggled about his trap, scrapping his now-pink nose to find an escape route, his long muscular tail (normally used as a first line of defence) got caught around the trap spring. A tug-of-war with his own tail ensued and he got stuck fast under the hot sun.

Meimei Returns To The Wild
18th Mar 2019, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)
[PREVIOUSLY, ON MEIMEI'S STORY]
Some may be horrified to learn that Meimei was released. But reticulated pythons have been part of this sunny island from the very beginning.
