World Animal Day
текст
Every year on 4th October, a great event takes place when animal lovers around the world come together
to celebrate animal life in all its forms.
World Animal Day started in 1931 when ecologists meeting at a convention in Florence decided it
would be a good way to highlight the difficult situation of endangered animal species. Since then, it has
become a day for remembering and honouring all animals and the important role that they play on the
planet and in our lives. It also celebrates the special relationship that man has with animals and honours
people who love and respect them.
Animal lovers hold events in all major cities and towns on all five continents to increase awareness of
animal welfare and to do something special to help animals in need or in danger. Many zoos and nature
reserves open their gates and allow people free entry to see and learn about animals, They also organize
educational and fun activities for children. Animal shelters invite people to visit the animals and donate
food or money and perhaps even take some lucky animal home.
All sorts of organizations participate and do their part to help out. Animal charity organizations, schools,
clubs and even shops hold a variety of events including poetry, painting, or photography competitions.
Some even hold cycling or running marathons to collect money to help animals
World Animal Day is a great way to come together and to do something truly worthwhile. If you care about
animals, don't miss the opportunity to join in on the next World Animal Day to help make the planet a
better place for all living creatures.
