|
The aim of The Humane Society of the United States may seem simple—promoting the protection of all animals—but it requires a wide range of actions and strategies. Since its establishment in 1954, The HSUS has developed programs to take on animal abuse and exploitation wherever it occurs. Our mission covers a surprisingly broad range of concerns: Companion Animals works with pet owners, the animal-care and control community, and legislators. Wildlife and Habitat Protection strives to protect wildlife in their natural habitats as well as in captivity. Likewise, our Marine Mammals staff fights for better conditions, both in the wild and in captivity, for whales, manatees and other at-risk marine mammals. Government Affairs lobbies on behalf of animals at the federal, state, and local levels, while Farm Animal Welfare works for the more humane treatment of animals raised and killed for meat, eggs, and milk, and combats the spread of factory farming. Animal Research campaigns to raise awareness of the pain and distress suffered by animals used in research, while Investigative Services works to expose animal fighting, the fur trade, greyhound racing, and the Norwegian whaling industry, among other issues. Field Services oversees the work of the nine HSUS regional offices, which extend the organization's national programs into the community. And Humane Society University coordinates all HSUS training activities and creates and enhances educational opportunities.
