What a great start to the year! Here are some highlights from our favourite wildlife encounters in Singapore!
We run custom wildlife tours, including herping and birdwatching right here in sunny Singapore!
Pangolins are amazing however their presence is increasingly being threatened by habitat loss, hunting and poaching throughout their range.
In Singapore, Sunda Pangolins occasionally stray into urban areas and it is a little known fact that these elusive mammals are critically endangered.
What else do we know about pangolins? Swipe to find out!
Did you know Singapore is home to these really cool forest creatures?
TheĀ Sunda PangolinĀ is our only native pangolin and is a shy, nocturnal mammal that feeds on ants and termites using its long sticky tongue.
TheĀ Cryptic Painted FrogĀ is a small forest frog with a surprisingly loud call, often heard after rain among low vegetation.
TheĀ Velvet WormĀ isnāt really a worm but an ancient, soft-bodied predator that hunts tiny invertebrates using sticky slime!

TheĀ Cryptic Painted FrogĀ is a small forest frog with a surprisingly loud call, often heard after rain among low vegetation. Photo with a phytothelm - tree hollow, where they lay eggs!
TheĀ Velvet WormĀ isnāt really a worm but an ancient, soft-bodied predator that hunts tiny invertebrates using sticky slime! One of the most adorable inverts in Singapore!
The iconic Grey-crowned Cranes from our expedition Uganda! Easily one of Africaās most elegant birds, instantly recognisable by its golden ācrownā of stiff feathers, white cheek patches and long graceful legs. Weāre running another expedition next year from 13-22 Feb so do sign up early for that!
Hereās some recent intertidal finds on Sentosa Island! Good vibes all round and our eager participants were treated to some really exciting finds! New dates up on our website! Itās been raining recently and that does affect the visibility but we are still out guiding every day on the intertidal zone or out in the forests and mangroves and continue to get really neat finds!
Cute pics only from our latest expedition to the truly fascinating island of Madagascar! Our 3rd expedition and it feels as though weāve only scratched the surface! If youād like to relive the journey with us - do be sure to check out our IG highlights and stories. Otherwise, we will definitely run another expedition in the 2nd half of 2027!
our first brookesia of the trip was a thinker and a professor
jumped out of the car for this one
on a really long day drive (think 15 hours) across Madasgascar, spotted this buddy in a moving vehicle
looks like teddy
at the end of a long night in Kirindy, we didnāt manage to find a low individual so we went out on our own and found this really nice one!
you just canāt miss out on mouse lemurs in Madagascar
limb-holding
one of the smallest chameleons in the world!
bud looks like a miniature wild boar
Here with one of the largest bronzeback species in Singapore - this is the Striped Bronzeback! Bronzebacks are generally fast snakes, they move through shrubs or sometimes even gardens and are non-venomous and rely on speed rather than aggression. Join us on a guided walk right here in Singapore!
Scorpions in Singapore!!! There is a secret world hiding in these barks and these right here are Bark Scorpions, a fairly widespread species found across Singaporeās forests. During one of our night tours, we were really fortunate to find a bunch of tiny scorpions huddled in a crevice!
Our previous Fraserās Hill trip in photos! We had great sightings of snakes, birds and even invertebrates! Swipe to see our favourite finds š¬
Weāve decided to put up more dates until the end of the year so do check em out!

āļø12-16 Dec (4 Nights)

A couple of charming Marabou Storks right beside a local market in Uganda! Organic scraps are discarded into the river which means a feast for the scavenging storks! A large wading bird - they have quite an imposing stance and are rather widespread across Sub-saharan Africa!
Black spitting cobras in Singapore!
Something that we definitely donāt see often at night. Black-spitting cobras, let alone a mating pair amongst the three we saw that night during a herping tour at the mangroves. Famous for their venomous spray, this scene would look surprisingly calm to anyone seeing these serpents for the first time.
