WORLD BINTURONG DAY

C’est une journée très spéciale ! Elle permet à l’équipe d’ABConservation, à nos partenaires, ainsi qu’à tous les amoureux du binturong, de célébrer et de partager notre savoir sur ce si singulier animal ! Nous en profitons également pour parler environnement, nature, biodiversité, actions, conservation et bien d’autres sujets que nous souhaitons défendre.

When does it take place?

World Binturong Day takes place every year on the 2nd Saturday of May.

It takes place every year on the second Saturday in May. This year the 11th edition (already !) will take place Saturday, May 10, 2025. Last year, no fewer than 50 establishments from all over the world celebrated the day with us. In France, every year, ABConservation is present at La Menagerie du Jardin des Plantes de Paris for the organization of this very special event. In the Philippines, the association organizes activities in schools, universities and local communities throughout the month of May.
