If you work at a town council, and would like to hold a briefing for your pr...

WHY IS THE GREEN IGUANA NOT GREEN ANYMORE?!
Featured in this photo is Watney, the biggest green iguana in our care. Some male green iguanas will brighten up their colours during mating season, and may return back to duller shades after.
Please consider supporting the iguanas and other victims of the wildlife trade under our Wildlife Supporter Scheme - http://acres.org.sg/support-us-2/wss/

TWINKLE GETS REUNITED!
We very often get calls regarding baby birds who have fallen from their nests or get stranded while learning to fly. Twinkle, the starling chick was no different, she got stranded after falling out of her nest. Thanks to a kind resident who safely contained her, we were able to make a makeshift nest with recycled stuff and after some time, witnessed Twinkle's mom coming to feed her!

CO-EXIST NOT CULL
Are the birds in your neighbourhood singing their hearts out? Are macaques monkeying around in your estate? Culling in addition to being inhumane, results in other animals replacing the ones who are trapped and removed. Let’s learn to co-exist with our neighbours instead.
Take your first step by checking out and sharing our advisory sheets, and more action updates to come very soon from ACRES!

AMAZING PHOTO OF MALAYAN COLUGO TAKEN BY RESIDENT!
Last week, we shared about LIL-WON, the juvenile Malayan colugo. Tonight, we would like to share this amazing photo sent to us by Michael Soldner, a resident of a condominium in the Bukit Timah area. He managed to capture some breathtaking photos of a adult colugo gliding about with a baby hugging onto her. The urban background pretty much sums up our how wildlife are adapting and how we need to appreciate and co-exist with them! Our thanks to ...

LIL-WON THE JUVENILE MALAYAN COLUGO!
Lil-Won was found stranded by a member of public at Bukit Timah. Lil-Won was a juvenile Malayan colugo. However, she could grip onto a tree trunk and climb it. Very often, in urban Singapore, young/juvenile animals get lost or stranded. In such cases, the ACRES wildlife rescue team always places emphasis on reuniting these lost wild animals with their parents first. Usually, the adults will be around in the vicinity.
We were not sure how Lil-Won will react...

ACRES REMOVES A FISH HOOK FROM A MONITOR LIZARD!
The ACRES wildlife rescue team continues to get calls regarding animals who have fishing lines and hooks caught on them. Barb, the young water monitor lizard was the latest victim. He got a fish hook lodged in his mouth. Luckily, it was not lodged deeply and we managed to quickly remove the hook and set him free shortly after doing a health check. Unfortunately, not all animals who get caught in fishing lines and hooks survive. Many die a painful...
