NATIVE WILDLIFE RESCUE ROUNDUP: 25TH SEPTEMBER 2015

Lost in our urban landscapeall they needed was a little help!

1. Shock, a yellow bittern, was found stranded and helpless by concerned students at United World College of South East Asias East campus. Poor Shock couldnt fly or even stand up properly. Bitterns are very sensitive to changes in the environment and do get stressed easily. Shock was given ample time to rest and, after receiving some fluids, he managed to fly off!

2. Tarmac, a Sunda pangolin, was spotted attempting to cross a road close to Bukit Timah Nature Reserve. Thankfully, concerned members of the public managed to get hold of Tarmac before he was hit by a vehicle. In the photo you can see shy Tarmac rolled up in defense, as members of the public waited for our Wildlife Rescue Officers to arrive. Due to the close proximity to the nature reserve, Tarmac was checked for injuries and quickly released back into the forest.

3. Climber, a paradise tree snake, was spotted at a void deck along Ang Mo Kio Avenue 10. The inquisitive snake was seen trying to climb the pillars at the void deck. A small crowd had formed, and a member of public had chased the snake into a nearby community garden. Paradise tree snakes are common in Singapore, where they can be seen in urban areas hunting for lizards, bats and other prey.
