The presence of an infinite number of animals that exist on the wonderful planet Earth makes our own life journey richer.
Representatives of the animal world delight us with their grace and beauty, surprise us with their strength, speed, dexterity. They are the natural beauty of our planet and need love, care and protection.
Unfortunately, in our world there are many things that threaten the life and future of many animals: excessive consumption of natural resources, destruction of habitats, thoughtless interference in the ecosystem and simply indifferent, and sometimes cruel attitude towards our four-legged friends.
Arthur Schopenhauer argued that a person who is cruel to animals cannot be kind, because compassion is inherent in the kindness of character. There are a lot of people in the world who are able to treat all living beings with compassion, compassion and care for them. They join forces into save the world's wildlife and protect the rights of pets. On their initiative, the International Congress of Defenders of Nature in 1931 decided to establish International Animal Day. In many countries, nature protection societies supported the initiative and showed their readiness to celebrate this date every year.
Russia has been particularly active in participating in Animal Day events since 2000. However, if we look back at the past, it can be noted that our country was among the first states that paid attention to the problems of animal protection. It is known that the activities of the "Russian Society for the Protection of Animals", created back in 1865, were aimed at establishing rules and laws prohibiting cruelty to animals and determining certain punishments for this. The main goal of these actions is to develop in people feelings of compassion and mercy for animals, to instill sound ideas about the benefits and benefits that promise only good care and saving for our smaller brothers.
In our time, October 4 - Animal Protection Day - nature lovers celebrate not in word, but in deed. On this day, especially mass events are held, the main goal of which is to instill in people a sense of responsibility for all life on our planet and a call for nature protection.
On Animal Day, humane actions are organized to draw public attention to solving the problems of many homeless animals and protecting them from cruel treatment, cold and hunger, extermination. Real and urgent help is needed not onlystray, domestic and zoo animals, but also representatives of the wild, and you should always remember this, and not just on Animal Day.
Ideas about the protection of the rights of representatives of the animal world are finding more and more adherents who take an active part in the work of various councils and organizations in many countries of the world. In 1986, the Council of Europe adopted the Convention on the Protection of the Rights of Domestic Animals, developed in accordance with the principles of bioethics. This year, there are already 23 states that have ratified it. However, the tradition of celebrating Animal Day has taken root in many other countries of the world, now there are more than sixty of them.
Summing up the results of mankind's activities over the past centuries, scientists are forced to state the inconsistency of the existing principles of people's attitude to wildlife. Because of the thoughtless and ruthless extermination, entire species of animals, billions of living beings, have disappeared. Humanity will have to come to terms with the fact that animals are precious in themselves, not just useful, and the sooner this happens, the better. After all, as Professor Jean Dorst points out in his book Before Nature Die, man has many objective reasons to strive to preserve the wilderness around him. The scientist claims that the animal world can be saved if people love it, at least because it is beautiful. Perhaps Animal Day is meant to remind people of how important it is to save the living creatures around us.nature.
