c. Listen to the Young
d. None of the above

ANSWER: Listen to the Young Voices
 
World Wildlife Day will be celebrated on 3rd March 2017 with the theme “Listen to the Young Voices.”

Given that almost one quarter of the world’s population is aged between 10 and 24, vigorous efforts need to be made to encourage young people, as the future leaders and decision makers of the world, to act at both local and global levels to protect endangered wildlife.

World Wildlife Day 2017 encourages youth around the world to rally together to address ongoing major threats to wildlife including habitat change, over-exploitation or illicit trafficking.

Youth are the agents of change.
