Bill > SRes80

This Resolution designates March 3, 2017, as "World Wildlife Day" to highlight the importance of wildlife and the threats it faces globally. It supports increasing public awareness about the benefits wildlife provides to humans and the dangers it encounters, while also advocating for a stronger fight against wildlife crime, which includes illegal trade in animals and plants, often referred to as wildlife trafficking. The resolution commends the United States' efforts to coordinate its government agencies effectively in combating this crime and encourages ongoing collaboration among the U.S., international allies, local communities, non-profit groups, and private businesses to conserve and celebrate wildlife for future generations.
