DESCRIPTION:March 3\,  World Wildlife Day \, is the day in which we celebr
 ate the conservation of wild flora and fauna   The invention of the concep
 t of "wild" begins to manifest itself in human culture with the domesticat
 ion of animals and plants. In the Latin etymology of the two words\, silva
 \, forest\, is contrasted with domus\, house\, highlighting the meaning an
 d horizon of values ​​that our culture attributes to these two categor
 ies. It should be noted that nowadays\, in some of the few human populatio
 ns of hunter gatherers present in very small and remote areas of our plane
 t this distinction is not linguistically present.    World Wildlife Day (W
 WD) \, established by the  United Nations General Assembly  in 2013\, cele
 brates "wild" nature. Global phenomena such as the destruction and fragmen
 tation of habitats\, pollution\, climate change\, the introduction of inva
 sive alien species\, poaching and trade of wild species\, unsustainable hu
 nting and fishing activities are among the main threats to biodiversity of
  which wild fauna and flora are an integral part. On March 3\, 1973\, the 
  Washington Convention (CITES)  was signed with the aim of regulating\, mo
 nitoring and prohibiting the trade of plant and animal species at risk of 
 extinction as well as their products and derivatives.
