World Wildlife Conservation Day is Dec. 4. And in honor of the day, GrantWatch is sharing 10 conservation grants below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This holiday came to be in 2012 based upon a promise by the U.S State Department to do more to protect wild animals by pushing for protections for endangered species around the world. This pledge is important because several species are &#8220;critically endangered.&#8221; Being critically endangered means that a species is facing an&nbsp;extremely&nbsp;high risk of extinction in the wild.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Here are some alarming <a href=\"https:\/\/petpedia.co\/endangered-species-statistics\/#included%2030,178%20species\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">statistics<\/a> about wildlife, according to PetPedia:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>1\/4th of all assessed species&nbsp;of mammals are in danger.<\/li><li>Animal extinction is&nbsp;1,000-10,000 times higher&nbsp;than the natural rate right now.<\/li><li>Orangutans have had&nbsp;80% of their population&nbsp;killed in the last 75 years.<\/li><li>Asian elephant populations have been halved.<\/li><li>Out of 19 polar bear subpopulations, only one is increasing<\/li><li>Human behavior has changed roughly 66% of the ocean surface.<\/li><li>Hunters kill over 200,000 animals&nbsp;annually for trophies.<\/li><li>There are between&nbsp;200 and 2,000 extinctions&nbsp;every year.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><meta charset=\"utf-8\"\/>World Wildlife Conservation Day is a day to recognize the need to protect these species at risk of extinction. It&#8217;s a day to push for increased protection, to look for solutions and call for action. Protecting the most vulnerable is a key part of protecting the planet, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Together cities, government agencies, nonprofits, and other organizations can all help protect critically endangered species.
