World Wildlife Day is Today

For nature lovers and others today is World Wildlife Day.

World Wildlife Day is a time to raise awareness and to remember the importance of wildlife in our lives.

According to the United Nations website celebrating the day “The animals and plants that live in the wild have an intrinsic value and contributes to the ecological, genetic, social, economic, scientific, educational, cultural, recreational and aesthetic aspects of human well-being and sustainable development.”

In an effort to increase awareness and conservation of some of the animals out there in danger and under stress here are a couple of videos on the issue.
