SATURDAY CRIME NIGHT � MYNAH ABUSED BY COFFEESHOP CLEANER

The ACRES Animal Crime Investigation Unit (ACIU) received feedback about a cleaner who abused birds at the coffee shop at which he works.

It was alleged that the said man has been catching birds that enter the coffee shop premises and throwing them onto the floor.

The ACIU investigated and found that poor hygiene and ineffective disposal of food were issues that the coffee shop failed to address. This led to birds feeding on leftover food and from dustbins which were left open.

The issue was highlighted to the National Environment Agency (NEA), and the agency has given a stern warning to the coffee shop management about keeping their premises clean and observing good waste management at all times in order to mitigate the issue. A stern warning has also been given to the management and the operators not to treat the animals with cruelty and to treat them with respect.

We thank NEA for their prompt act and response with regard to the case. We also thank the public for their continuous efforts to end animal cruelty together with us.

We hope that through education, people can learn to live in greater harmony with our native birds.
