“The question is not, ‘Can they reason?’ nor, ‘Can they talk?’ but rather, ‘Can they suffer?’”

Since the ACRES Wildlife Rescue Centre (AWRC) was opened in 2009, over 2760 animals (and counting) hae been rescued by our dedicated team. Our mission: To help all distressed wild animals in Singapore.

Every year, there are more and more animals who need our help. With over 70 rescued resident wild animals to be cared for each month at the AWRC, we now need your help more than ever. Giving victims of the cruel, illegal exotic pet trade a second chance at life, is a reality with the Animal Benefactor programme.

The process of rescuing an animal and releasing him or her back into their natural habitat or repatriating them involves several costly factors as follows:

  • Full physical check-up of the animal.
  • Microchip implant for identification.
  • Medication and nutritional supplements, with veterinary treatment or surgery if required.
  • Upkeep of the ACRES wildlife rescue centre
  • Maintenance of our animal rescue and veterinary care equipment.
  • Transportation costs to release an animal back into the wild or repatriate them. (costs even more)
For just $1 a day or $30 a month, you can sponsor the animal of your choice and be directly responsible for giving him or her the chance to lead a happier, healthier life. Among the 70+ residents we are currently caring for at the AWRC, here are some of our rescued friends (and their stories) who need your help:

How Can I Help?

As an Animal Benefactor, your contribution ensures the safety, health and comfort of your sponsored animal. Your donation may also help to make their journey back to their country of origin, perhaps even back into the wild, if possible - a reality.

While your sponsored animal remains in our care, your contribution aids in the construction of various structures within his or her enclosure: Slopes, burrows, tunnels and pools create an enriching, comfortable environment for the animals. Part of your donation will also be channelled towards our ongoing native wildlife rescue efforts, enabling us to also save hundreds of native wild animals every year.
