𝐒𝐄𝐏 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒 𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐃 𝐔𝐏: 𝟐𝟗 𝐆𝐋𝐔𝐄 𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐏 𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐒 Do ‘pests’ deserve a violent death? After all, like us, these animals feel pain and fear. Glue traps make pest control cheap and easy, but they also show how we treat animals, influencing society’s values, especially for the young. The colourful packaging with cartoon rodents and words like "clean" and "non-toxic" makes these products seem less harmful than...

𝐍𝐎 𝐃𝐈𝐅𝐅𝐄𝐑𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄 🐮🐶🐱🐷🐐 We often celebrate the love, playfulness, curiosity, and affection of dogs, but we may not know that other animals such as cows share many of these same beautiful qualities? Just like our beloved dogs, cows are sentient beings—they can form strong bonds, feel joy, and even mourn. 🐾💔 Yet, we often treat them so differently even though they both deserve our compassion and kindness. One simple way to show our compassi...

𝐀𝐔𝐆 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒 𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐃 𝐔𝐏 𝐎𝐅 𝟐𝟎 𝐆𝐋𝐔𝐄 𝐓𝐑𝐀𝐏 𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐒 It is indeed heartening to learn that members of the public were our ‘eyes’ and ‘ears’ by reporting these cases to us. The use of glue traps does not solve the root causes of rodent issues. This still boils down to proper food waste management and curbing littering and feeders through effective enforcement and regular outreach/education. Our follow...

18th Sep 2024, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)

All good things must come to an end. Only then will extraordinary things begin. Our avian enclosure will soon be demolished to make way for a sewer system. This opens opportunities for newer, bigger projects to enhance the ACRES Wildlife Rescue Centre infrastructure and optimise our resources. The avian enclosure had rehabilitated countless birds from orioles to eagles, but it was also built to serve multi-species such as pythons, monitor lizards, and even otters. With the help of corporate vo...
