DO SINGAPOREANS SUPPORT THE CULLING OF MONKEYS?

The answer is NO (based on a survey commissioned by ACRES and conducted independently by Millward Brown)!

Only 13% of Singaporeans feel that monkey culling should be allowed.

The survey findings are very encouraging. Animal protection is clearly an issue close to the heart of Singaporeans and this shows a strong sense of compassion in our society. While animals continue to be culled in Singapore due to public complaints, the findings here show that the complaints are from a minority of Singaporeans.

We look forward towards working closely with the government on exploring and implementing alternative long-term humane solutions that will address both public and animal protection concerns.

Note: We will be sharing more of the survey results every Saturday! ACRES chose to partner Millward Brown for this survey as they are experts in the field of market surveys and they ensured that the survey methodology was unbiased, scientific and representative.
