Still Using Glue Traps?. Glue Traps Are Widely Use..
6th Jan 2023, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)

STILL USING GLUE TRAPS? Glue traps are widely used to kill rodents, but they don’t eliminate #rodent problems, as the root cause often does not get addressed. They are ineffective, inhumane and dangerous. It may seem like a quick fix - visually showing you the rats who have been biting through your food containers, 'spreading' germs and destroying your bins have been caught (and killed after much suffering). But if they were so effective, why are they still being so widely sold and used? H...

2nd Jan 2023, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)

SIX #POACHING CASES IN ONE MONTH Hougang St 61, Jalan Jelita, Yishun St 51, Sunrise Terrace, Telok Blangah road and Bedok Reservoir view. From bulbuls & junglefowl to magpie robins and hanging parrots. You simply cannot catch a trend here, from condo to landed property to construction site to HDB estate. The only big consolation here is – the fantastic public who will observe, document and blow the whistle, or even take action by simply removing an abandoned live illegal trap in a public a...

24th Dec 2022, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)

KERMIT, THE BABY MONITOR LIZARD APPEALS FOR RESPONSIBLE PRACTICES Sometime in November 2022, we rescued a very beautiful young water monitor lizard (we named 'Kermit'), with a #fishhook lodged inside. It took a #surgery to remove the hook. Thankfully Kermit made full recovery and was released back to the #wild in a couple of weeks. Even though this sounds like a happy ending, ACRES wishes to reduce the need for rescue through awareness and action. This and many more such fish hook rescues co...

DIFFERENCES IN BEING INDIFFERENT: STUDY IN SINGAPORE As an organisation who works on raising awareness for different kinds of animals, from chickens (in the food industry), rabbits (#cosmetictesting), tortoises (#illegalwildlifetrade), snakes (#humanwildlifeconflict), dolphins (#Captivity) to the common rock pigeons and more - these perceptions can create challenges, as we try to raise funds or encourage public to take action for the animals.

#GLUETRAPS SUCK Hot days - we sweat a lot and we cannot wait to change from a sticky shirt. Here is a #Sparrowhawk someone alerted us to, found with glue from glue traps. Many rounds of cleaning, feeding, captive care and rehabilitation is what this animal is going to go through, with hopes that he/she will still be able to fly and hunt. We will continue to raise #awareness on the #cruelty behind use of glue traps, whether a rodent or a mynah or a protected raptor gets stuck on it. Every we...
