National Dice Day

Dice games have been a part of celebrations and family get-togethers for many years. They are a perfect option for so many reasons—they are affordable and they provide activities for all ages. Dice games can also be educational. Counting, waiting your turn and strategy can be learned through a game of dice. Whether you are looking for a quick 5-minute game or one that lasts for an hour, dice games can offer fun options.

World Wildlife Conservation Day

The world’s best loved species are being slaughtered by widespread and dangerous criminal networks. Driven by a voracious demand for illegal animal parts and products, the black market in wildlife rivals illegal arms and drugs. Increasingly, wildlife traffickers are the same kingpins involved in trafficking people and arms and narcotics.

WWF joined the call to action put out by Secretary of State Secretary Clinton to raise awareness and engage conservationists like you on Wildlife Conservation Day, December 4. http://www.worldwildlife.org/stories/wildlife-conservation-day
