Which day is observed as ‘World Elephant Day’ every year?

Correct Answer: C. 12 August

World Elephant Day is observed on August 12th since 2012 to raise awareness about the challenges faced by elephants, the largest land mammals. Elephants, known as pachyderms, have thick skin and are related to animals like hippos and rhinos. They are primarily found in Africa and Asia but are threatened by poaching for ivory and human-elephant conflicts due to habitat encroachment.
