STORY OF SOFTEE – AND OTHER TURTLES “IN THE SOUP”!
In August, our team received a call for a stranded turtle on East Coast beach. Our hearts sank when we received a photo from the concerned caller, showing an Asiatic soft-shelled turtle.
The kind caller helped by bringing the turtle away from the sea water, and rinsing with fresh water. Joshua, Lucie and Reizal our rescue officers on duty rescued Softee, who passed away upon arrival.

DIPS, THE COBRA
Dips is an Equatorial spitting cobra who had slipped into a pool in an unoccupied property and couldn't get out as the surface was too slippery.
Even though cobras are good swimmers, Dips could have died from exhaustion and drowning, if not for a kind real estate agent who noticed Dips and called our hotline for help, and our officers Carmen Choong and Lester attended to Dips.
Dips has been safely rescued and released!

A BIRTHDAY GIFT (IT FORWARD)
As parents, you might be familiar with the amount of material goods that kids receive at birthday parties. Gift-It-Forward was founded last year as a simple and fun way to teach children about social responsibility, and ACRES is a beneficiary.
How it works:
When the birthday celebrant sends out party invitations through this site, they can set up a gift fund that friends and family can contribute to instead of buying gifts. A portion of the fund (50-100%) will go...
