Sugar Glider Make endangered Swift Parrot

The endangered Swift Parrot (Lathamus discolor) has to face attacks of the Sugar Glider. The australian team of researchers found out that this mammal destroys the most of all nests. „And that predation was so severe that, on average across mainland Tasmania, only 17 per cent of swift parrot nests were actually successful and all of those failures were as a result of sugar gliders eating the swift parrot, either the females or their eggs or both,” explained Dejan Stojanovic for ABC News. Dejan leads the team and is involved in the research of this issue more than three years.

Sugar Glider are one of 5 exotic pets you can't buy in Singapore

HAVE you ever wondered if you could buy a tiger cub or a pygmy marmoset monkey, and keep them as pets in Singapore?

Well, you can. But it’s illegal. Over a six-month investigation from June to December this year, wildlife rescue group Animal Concerns Research and Education Society (Acres) found 156 listings of exotic animals on six online sites – Gumtree Singapore, Locanto Classifieds Singapore, ST701, Carousell, Adpost.com Classifieds Singapore and ChaosAds Singapore. Animals featured on these listings ranged from ball pythons to tarantulas.
