Details:
- Reportedly, a call to action was put out by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in 2012 to raise awareness and engage conservationists on Wildlife Conservation Day, December 4.
- The day came into being during an event "Wildlife Trafficking and Conservation: A Call to Action” held at the State Department on November 8, 2012.
- This global day is an opportunity for people to get closer to mother nature and protect other living beings from being destroyed.
- To the unversed, this day isn't a stand-alone occasion for wildlife. Apart from the fact that everyday care is the best for protecting wildlife resources, the United Nations General Assembly decided to proclaim March 3 as the Wildlife day. Months after the globe observes Wildlife day, yet another day mainly aimed at its conservation is marked on December 4
