World Elephant Day is celebrated each year on August 12.
“World Elephant Day is a rallying call for people to support organizations that are working to stop the illegal poaching and trade of elephant ivory and other wildlife products, protect wild elephant habitat, and provide sanctuaries and alternative habitats for domestic elephants to live freely.”
– Patricia Sims, World Elephant Day Co-Founder
