National Wildlife Day

What is National Wildlife Day?

There are thousands of endangered species all over the world. It is a holiday that aims to give these creatures a voice. As fellow inhabiters of the earth, they deserve to have a proper home be treated with dignity. Mistreatment, ecological balance, and excessive hunting are some of the topics discussed during this period.

The History of National Wildlife Day

This holiday has a long history. Wildlife awareness efforts began on March 1, 1872, when Yellowstone National Park was founded. Then on September 27, 1962, through a documentary, the truth behind pesticides and their effect on the environment began to emerge. Then under President Nixon, the Endangered Species Act was passed on December 28, 1973. This is meant to protect creatures who are facing extinction. Then in 2006, in honor of “Crocodile Hunter” Steve Irwin, the date was set on September 4.

When is National Wildlife Day?

National Wildlife Day is observed every September 4 of the year. It is a holiday created by Colleen Paige. It is in memory and honor of Steve Irwin. Irwin is a strong advocate of wildlife preservation. He has done a lot of efforts to promote awareness to conserve the environment. Until his demise on September 4, 2006, Irwin’s love and enthusiasm for nature and wildlife never faltered.
