SINGAPORE — A video of a rooster swinging on a playground has caught the attention of many online users. The clip is another addition to this week’s list of rare animal sightings around Singapore.

On Thursday (Oct 20), an online user shared a video of a rooster nonchalantly swinging on a playground. Two individuals, who seemed to be the animal’s humans, were seen watching their rather unusual pet swinging.

“Every rooster needs (its) daily dose,” was written on the video. The caption, on the other hand, mentioned “Rooster(s) need morning exercise too,” it read.

In just twelve hours, the seven-second clip garnered almost four thousand views. The odd animal sighting has gotten a laugh out of many.

In response to the video, some online users left humorous comments about the rooster.

According to an article published in September 2022, raising poultry pets is becoming some sort of trend in Singapore. While people who live in HDB flats are not allowed to have chickens, ducks, and quails as pets due to these animals now being ideal house pets, people who own their own property are permitted to have poultry as pets–with a limit to how many.

In another rare animal sighting news just this week, a Singaporean spotted an animal that looked like a mix between a raccoon and a cat. The individual took to an online news forum to ask what it was. A handful of netizens responded with humour, identifying the animal as a trash panda and even a Pokémon or King Julien, the lemur from the animated film, Madagascar.
