Celebrate National Wildlife Day
Feb 10, 2020 07:28AM ● By Annette BriggsNational
Wildlife Day is an observance designed to bring awareness to the number of
endangered animals nationally, as well as globally, that need to be protected.
All around the world, zoos, animal sanctuaries, and wildlife organizations are
honored for their collective work to help preserve the planet's animals and
educate the public about conservation.
Held annually on February 22, the birthday of the late wildlife conservationist
Steve Irwin, National Wildlife Day encourages citizens to stand up and fight
for animals that need a voice, visit their local zoo, and donate to worthy
wildlife rehabilitation sanctuaries and organizations that make a difference in
the lives of our wild animal friends.
