AU REVOIR & BON VOYAGE MS. MANON PIOTUCH!
Manon is a 17 year old with much courage and determination! Despite the language barrier, she made the decision to travel to Singapore to volunteer with ACRES. During her volunteering days, we communicated through body language and simple English.
At the end of the day, Manon proved that she had overcome the initial communications barrier through her act of service, and showed that the duty to care for all lives spans across all languages and cultures!...

4th Dec 2015, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)
NATIVE WILDLIFE RESCUE ROUNDUP: 4 DECEMBER 2015
Last month (November), our wildlife rescue team received a call about an eagle in distress. The white-bellied sea eagle had crash landed into a canal area, and he was being pounded by a heavy flow of gushing water. Luckily, a group of teenage boys came to his aid and helped to pull him to safety. They managed to keep the eagle warm and calm by placing a shirt over him. A concerned passer-by called us for help.
The white-bellied sea eagle was not...

Deen, an Indian star tortoise at the ACRES Wildlife Rescue Centre (identified in the photo by his ‘new boy on the block’ clean carapace) recently finished his quarantine period and joined the other star tortoises outdoors. He was immediately investigated by some of the senior and more ‘seasoned’ tortoises!
As you can see from the photo, the senior tortoises paraded their seasoned and dirty shells (thanks to the monsoon season) a...

SATURDAY CRIME NIGHT – ABUSED PUPPY’S MIRACULOUS SECOND CHANCE AT LIFE
In the UK earlier this year, four boys under the age of 16 and under the influence of drugs, stole a puppy, fed him drugs, kicked and punched him, and wrung and broke his neck. They also set fire to his face and eyes after lighting a deodorant aerosol can, and left him near a rubbish tip to die. The poor puppy was only discovered days later by a passerby.
Miraculously, the puppy, named Chunky, survived the ordeal. Hap...

NATIVE WILDLIFE RESCUE ROUNDUP: 27 NOVEMBER 2015
1. (Left top) Momma is a water monitor lizard who was found stuck and injured in a shallow drain by the roadside. She had lost some blood, possibly from a collision with a vehicle, and was in shock when we rescued her. With some fluids and rest overnight, she had perked up by the morning, and we were relieved to find that she had not suffered any major/internal injuries and was all good to be released!
