World Nature Conservation Day Jul. 28, 2025

World Nature Conservation Day

Every July 28, World Nature Conservation Day reminds us that protecting nature isn"t optional—it"s essential. Mongolia"s vast grasslands, featured today, are a powerful example. These ecosystems are among the largest intact temperate grasslands on Earth, stretching across millions of square kilometres of open steppe. They support around 200,000 nomadic herder families and provide habitat for rare species like the Mongolian gazelle and snow leopard.
