Poster Design Contest for World Wildlife Day, 2016

The theme of WWD 2016 is a call to all citizens around the world to play a role in protecting the amazing wild animals and plants who share the planet with us. Habitat loss, climate change and poaching are among the most alarming challenges faced by wildlife today. Poaching and trafficking of ivory is now the most serious immediate threat to African elephants. The graphics should communicate this key message – “In Our Hands”.
