European legislative bodies, specifically the European Parliament and the Council, come together to establish regulations and laws.

On September 7, the Fauna Zoo in Graefrath will be hosting its annual Species Conservation Day. This event aims to raise awareness of species and nature conservation and show concrete ways to take action.

The day promises to be filled with educational activities and engaging exhibits. Numerous organisations, including the Biodidactics of the University of Wuppertal, Solingen Beekeepers' Association, NABU Solingen, City Department of Nature and Environment, Wild Animal Aid Wipperfürth, and German Society for Herpetology and Terrarium Studies, will participate.

For the youngest visitors, a species conservation rally is offered, where they can learn about different animal species in a playful way. The rally includes tasks for the children to solve and a surprise at the end. Freshly baked waffles are part of the day's program, ensuring a delicious treat for all attendees.

Wild Animal Aid Wipperfürth, a local organisation that takes care of injured and orphaned animals, will be a significant part of the event. This year, they will focus on amphibian protection. If possible, they release the animals they care for back into the wild.

The Biodidactics of the University of Wuppertal will also present their work during the event. Their participation adds an academic perspective to the day, providing insights into the latest research and conservation efforts.

The Solingen Beekeepers' Association will also participate and present their work related to beekeeping. Their involvement highlights the importance of bees in our ecosystem and the efforts being made to ensure their survival.

The event is not only about learning but also about taking action. The proceeds and donations from the day will support a species conservation project. This year, Wild Animal Aid Wipperfürth will receive support from the proceeds and donations.

The Fauna Zoo is inviting everyone to attend the Species Conservation Day. Whether you're a nature enthusiast, a parent looking for an educational activity for your children, or simply someone who wants to make a difference, this event promises to be an enlightening and enjoyable experience. Join us on September 7 to celebrate and learn about the wonders of our natural world.
