SINGAPORE: An elderly man obstructed an operation of a government agency when he cut the plastic straps securing the birdcages, causing the release of three crows. According to case details, the suspect went to Toa Payoh for a meal when he saw the birdcage being secured with a plastic cable as he passed by the grass. A Wildlife Lead at Bird Management (WLBM) witnessed the suspect’s actions and warned him through a speaker. The suspect was fined $500 and has currently made a settlement of $370. The National Parks Board collaborated with Bird Management to control the number of domestic crows in Toa Payoh.
