When is World Wildlife Day?
Every year, we celebrate World Wildlife Day on March 3rd. We picked this date because it marks the founding of CITES (the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) in 1973. This year is extra special because it’s the 50th anniversary of CITES working to protect animals and plants.
World Wildlife Day 2024 : Theme, History & Important Facts
Ever wondered what World Wildlife Day is all about? Well, it’s like a special day dedicated to understanding and loving animals and their homes. The United Nations thought it was so important that they declared it an official day. We believe that to take care of animals, whether they’re in the wild or sadly stuck in captivity, people need to know what these creatures need.
Animals deserve to be in their natural homes, not stuck in cages. World Wildlife Day is a friendly reminder of that, and we think animals should have the freedom to live wild and free.
In this article, let’s get to know about this remarkable day and learn about different ways in which we can celebrate it!
