Ramsar Convention is aimed at saving :
Answer: A
The Ramsar Convention aims at saving Wetlands.
The Convention on Wetlands of International Importance, especially as Waterfowl Habitat, was signed at Ramsar in Iran in 1971 and came into force in 1975. It commits member countries to the conservation and wise use of wetlands and to designating sites for the List of Wetlands of International Importance. India joined in 1982.
Endangered animals are the concern of CITES (trade in endangered species) and the Convention on Migratory Species, and wild habitats in general come under the Convention on Biological Diversity. Ramsar covers only wetlands, so 'All of the above' is too broad.
