Correct Answer :   December 4


* International Cheetah Day is observed every year on December 4 to raise awareness about the challenges faced by cheetahs, including habitat loss, poaching, and human-wildlife conflict.

* Established by the Cheetah Conservation Fund (CCF), the day honours Khayam, a cheetah cub rescued by Dr. Laurie Marker.

* It highlights the importance of cheetah conservation efforts and encourages global participation in protecting this critically endangered species.

* With fewer than 7,000 cheetahs remaining in the wild, the day aims to inspire actions such as habitat restoration and breeding programs.
