This workshop focuses on the impact of exotic and invasive animals on our natural ecosystems in Singapore. Topics covered include:
(1) What is animal release? mercy release versus pet abandonment
(2) What are the impacts of animal release?
(3) How can you help?
This workshop is likely to be useful for anyone interested to do more about the release of animals into our natural habitats. It would be especially useful for anyone interested to volunteer for or would like to find out more about NPark's efforts in tackling this issue. The workshop requires active participation and includes role playing activities and is not to be mistaken for a public talk.(1) What is animal release? mercy release versus pet abandonment
(2) What are the impacts of animal release?
