Priscilla the wild boar at Chek Jawa used to accompany visitors to the shores.
Wild boar are quite plentiful on Pulau Ubin, and have also been sighted on the mainland!
If you have seen wild boar or any other interesting large mammals on land or at sea, Sivasothi would like to hear from you. He says ...
Animal sighting records have always been an important resource - over time, these can contribute to public awareness and education, suggest student research projects and supplement research in conservation and management projects. So any mammal record on land, sea and air is useful and large marine animals too - this includes turtles and interesting fish!

This data will be shared with other vertebrate researchers and managers in Singapore. Highlights may be featured on Habitatnews from time to time (if the records are not confidential), e.g. http://tinyurl.com/habitatnews-mammal
