The United Nations observes World Wildlife Day (WWD) every year on March 3rd to celebrate and raise awareness of the world's wild flora and fauna.
- The year 2023 is significant because it marks the 50th anniversary of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) on March 3rd.
- WWD provides a platform for appreciating the various forms of wild fauna and flora as well as raising awareness of the benefits of conservation.
- The theme for WWD 2023 is "Partnerships for Wildlife Conservation," emphasising the importance of working together to protect our planet's valuable biodiversity.
