What
can you do?
If you are at Chek Jawa and you see Priscilla, do say hello and admire
her. But please don't touch her; she may get alarmed if too many people
get near her.
Also please don't feed her. Our food may be harmful to her. She is
well able to find her own food on the seashore and in the coastal
forest. Here, there are plenty of crabs, fruits, roots and other titbits.
In fact, you might see her dig up edibles from the shore with her
sturdy nose! If you want to feed her anything, you may give her some
freshwater, which may be in short supply especially during the dry
season.
If you do see anyone harassing or hurting her, please explain to them
that she means no one any harm and shouldn't be disturbed. If she
is seriously hurt, do call NParks Info Kiosk at: 6542-4108 or email
us. |
