World Manta Day
September 17

World Manta Day is dedicated to raising awareness about manta rays, these majestic yet vulnerable marine creatures. Mantas, like many marine animals, are under threat due to overfishing, pollution, and climate change. This day aims to foster appreciation for mantas, promote their conservation, and advocate for international laws to protect them. It is also a day to encourage responsible marine tourism that allows people to appreciate mantas in their natural habitats without disrupting their behavior or causing harm.
