Aces Wildlife Rescue

Thanks to the Castaway Belize team for helping lend their digger for a stint to break ground on a new crocodile enclosure this week. Our newest resident Bridgette is blind and in need of a forever home which will take a lot of time, effort and funds which we don't currently have.
If you are in a position to be able to help Bridgette's cause through a donation then we are externally grateful.

On Sunday evening we were informed that an indivdual was directly feeding two crocodiles, which is illegal here in Belize, posing a $10,000 fine.

As we were already closeby we decided to pay a visit to the said individual.
After a informative conversation, the visitor was unaware they could not feed crocodiles, agreed to delete the footage and apologized for their mistake.

Raising awareness about coexisting with crocodiles is essential to ensure those that live and/or visit Ambergris Caye are well informed. If you are a property manager/owner, please get in touch and we can share digital leaflets on how to coexist with crocodiles.

If you need any signage for your property we can also provide at a discounted rate or a free printable version.

On 17 June, World Crocodile Day, the ACES Team will be running 31 km—almost the entire length of Ambergris Caye—to raise vital funds for ACES Wildlife Rescue.

We have just about reached 50% of our fundraising goal, and now we're calling on local bars and restaurants to help make this World Crocodile Day even more impactful.

Instead of torturing yourself by running the length of the island, why not sit back, relax, and enjoy a Croc-Tail or Croc-Beer, with proceeds supporting ACES Wildlife Rescue? 🍹🍺

We're excited that @ @ are already part of the Croc Team!

If you own or manage a bar or restaurant and would like to take part, please let us know. We'll send you a promotional poster for the day and share your participation on our social media channels. We'll also try to stop by during our run to take a photo outside your business with our Croc mascot as we make our way across the island!

Every dollar raised helps ACES continue its vital conservation work on Ambergris Caye. As the only wildlife rehabilitation centre serving the Northern Cayes, our resources are over stretched. Additional funding will allow us to:

• Rescue and rehabilitate more wildlife
• Support crocodile coexistence initiatives
• Deliver environmental education programmes
• Inspire the next generation of wildlife ambassadors

Together, we can make a real difference for the wildlife of Ambergris Caye. For more information and fundraising link in the comments.
