Naturalist Night Adventure (Colugo)
Description
At Bukit Batok Park, participants will get to encounter first-hand some of these creatures such as frogs, water snakes, crabs, and colugos (a kind of furry, flying tree-dweller). They will pick up behavioral observation skills and nifty bits of rainforest ecology from field expert guides.
What to Expect
We often don't associate Singapore with having lots of wildlife - so it's pretty exciting that the vulnerable flying colugos (or flying lemurs) live among us! This 2 hr walk with a naturalist guide takes place at Bukit Batok Park, and is great for families with kids 6+ and up.

Important Note
Do note that this is not merely a tour and active participation is encouraged to ensure a holistic experience. Come with an adventurous spirit! A slight degree of discomfort may be expected as you are walking in nature and it could be humid, but all the better for the kids to learn about the natural environment!
