Every year on October 4th, the world comes together for the well-being (康乐) of animals everywhere. This is World Animal Day.
Starting in 1931 in Florence, Italy, the yearly event has become a special chance for everyone who cares about animals to make a difference.
In the past ten years, China has done much to improve the well-being of domestic(驯养的) and wild animals. The protection of Asian elephants is a good example.
Asian elephants have become endangered because of people's hunting for their ivory(象牙). Asian elephants in China are mostly in Yunnan Province. These wild animals sometimes eat local farmers' crops. The government has been trying to create a more harmonious relationship between the local people and wildlife. For example, they make rules to stop the ivory trade.
