Every year on December 14th, International Monkey Day is celebrated worldwide - an opportunity to honor the fascinating world of primates and draw attention to important environmental issues.
What is International Monkey Day?
International Monkey Day was created to raise awareness about the importance and conservation of monkey species around the world. These fascinating animals are not only part of our planet's biological diversity, but also play a crucial role in the ecosystem.
What will be done on this day?
In honor of International Monkey Day, events, activities and awareness campaigns are taking place in many parts of the world. Conservation organizations, zoos, educational institutions and environmental groups organize events to educate the public about threats to monkey populations, such as habitat destruction and poaching.
Schools and communities often use this day to offer educational programs about monkeys and their habitat. The aim is to promote understanding and respect for these animals and to raise people's awareness of the challenges they face.
Why is this day important?
Protecting monkeys is crucial as many species are at risk of extinction. The destruction of their habitat through deforestation, illegal poaching and the illegal trade in exotic pets threaten the survival of many monkey species.
Monkeys play a key role in their ecosystems. They help spread seeds, regulate the populations of other species, and are often indicators of the health of the ecosystem in which they live.
Who is worshiped on this day?
International Monkey Day commemorates not only the diversity and beauty of the monkey world, but also the threats these fascinating animals face. It is an opportunity to support conservation efforts of these species and celebrate their role in nature.
As the ASR GD youth forum, we would also like to encourage people to discover the world of monkeys, find out about their importance in the ecosystem and actively work to protect them.
On this International Monkey Day, let us celebrate the fascination for these wonderful creatures together and work for their preservation!
