Yishun woman charged under Wildlife Act for feeding pigeons and crows

A woman in Yishun has been charged under the Wildlife Act after repeatedly feeding pigeons and crows in the area, marking one of the more unusual prosecutions to emerge from Singapore's ongoing war on urban bird feeding. The charges signal a firm stance by authorities on wildlife feeding, which is linked to pest proliferation, noise complaints, and the general fouling of HDB common areas. The case adds another chapter to Yishun's storied relationship with its animal kingdom, a neighbourhood already notorious for incidents involving cats, dogs, and at least one escaped python. No injuries were reported, though the pigeons were unavailable for comment.
