MEET OUR NATIVE WILDLIFE – TWIN-BARRED TREE SNAKE
The twin-barred tree snake (Chrysopelea pelias) is also known as banded flying snake. Just like the closely related and bigger paradise tree snakes (Chrysopelea paradisi), this species can glide from a higher level to a lower level by flattening their body in a curved fashion and projecting themselves off a branch.
Relatively rare, these beautiful snakes are characterised by their series of broad reddish orange patterns along their body that...

CAMPAIGNS EXECUTIVE NEEDED AT ACRES
“This animal is dangerous!”
“Kill it!”
“This animal belongs in the zoo.”
We’ve heard it all before. Wild animals in Singapore just need a bit of space and, more often than not, we humans are the ones who need a little know-how in understanding species we think are dangerous or a nuisance.
YOU, a potential Campaigns Executive, can be the one to educate on living in harmony with wildlife. From young to old, individuals to grassroots community, ...

MR BRICKLAND'S ROAD TO RECOVERY!
About 10 days ago, we encountered a stranded Malayan box turtle by the expressway slip road just off Brickland road. He was yet another run over victim. You can see the video here at :
https://www.facebook.com/ACRESasia/videos/10154 322543631523/
We are really happy to say that his condition is now stable after receiving treatment from the awesome team at the Pet Doctors Veterinary Clinic. However, he still has a long way to go. We are hoping he will pull thro...

MANDAI (DON’T MESS, DON’T MIND)!
Singapore is home to approximately over 1800 long-tailed macaques, who are a native species here.
Their wild population is naturally kept in tab like many other wild animals, based on availability of food and troop (group of monkeys) dynamics. But unfortunately when individuals complain about monkeys getting close to humans, they may be trapped and culled, or end up becoming a road kill through unfortunate accidents.
Introducing the Mandai troop. We have...

MEET GARRIX – A STAR IN OUR NEW WILDLIFE SUPPORTER SCHEME
This is Garrix, a green iguana at our ACRES Wildlife Rescue Centre. Garrix was found in 2015 on a potted plant outside an HDB estate. She was a baby, weighing just 135 grams. Like many other reptiles, Garrix is a victim of the cruel illegal pet trade, who often get abandoned or released to fend for themselves.
Now, we need your help to care for Garrix, and other victims of the illegal wildlife trade…
We are launching our new Wildl...

But take heart, because every cloud has its silver lining.
And every animal in need of help, had you.
We would like to take this opportunity to wish you peace, health, and the best this season has to offer you. Thank you for being there for us, for your ...

NOW HIRING!
Our logo is inspired by Blue, a special monkey whose tale started with capture, suffering and hardship and eventually journeyed with us to one of reunion, freedom and love. Now, we’re looking for passionate individuals who will walk through this journey with every other animal. While we are working towards the bigger picture- towards a world where exploitation of all animals ends- we must remember that every individual animal is important, and helping even one animal to a better ...

She-Ra Dustbathing!
22nd Dec 2016, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)
DID YOU KNOW CHICKENS LOVE DUSTBATHING?
Watch this video of a rescued hen named She-Ra demonstrating it! For birds like chickens, daily dust-baths are one way they keep parasites away and stay clean. This routine and others, as walking, perching or nesting are all part of chicken's natural behaviour that the intensive farming industry fails to meet most of them.
If you would like to help She-Ra and her friends, you can choose to not only reduce consumption of meat and eggs, but also to go cru...
