Three women in India just made a life-saving choice. After supplying dogs for the dog meat trade over 20 years, they heard about our program that helps people transition to humane ways of making a living. And they decided to leave the dog meat trade forever. But first, they helped get their remaining dogs to safety. Read their story: humaneworld.org/en/blog/histor…

Less than a week after an 18-year-old tourist tragically died in a horse-drawn carriage accident, the rides in and around Central Park started up again. We cannot forget what happened.

Protecting wild animals in the face of ever-increasing disasters is a labor of love. We’ve partnered with communities and local organizations to train rescue personnel and volunteers to mobilize for animals when disaster strikes.

Kroger had 10 years to fulfill its promise to sell only cage-free eggs by 2025. It missed the deadline—and millions of hens remain confined in cages so small they can't even spread their wings. Companies should keep the commitments they make to animals and consumers. Read more and take action. #CageFree #AnimalWelfare humaneworld.org/en/blog/kroger…

People want farmed animals treated better. But the National Pork Producers Council’s lobbyists keep serving up the same swill in attempts to overturn the nation’s strongest animal protection laws. They will never win. humaneworld.org/en/blog/win-sa…

The EU just took an historic step toward ending animal tests. Now, there’s a formal roadmap to phase out animal use —not just reduce it. The focus shifts to implementation: Timelines, accountability and serious commitment and investments in animal-free science. We’re pushing to make that happen. humaneworld.org/en/blog/eu-roa…

In April, we released our annual Horrible Hundred report on puppy mills, exposing the truth of what goes on at these breeders. Then, within just 30 days of the report’s publication, the USDA took action against 9 of the dealers we featured. Read more: humaneworld.org/en/blog/usda-c…

Several dogs were still wearing their collars, likely signs that they are stolen pets, when they were rescued just days before Yulin’s infamous dog meat “festival.” The slaughterhouse owner, who has been killing dogs for nearly 20 years, said it brought him a sense of relief. “I’m looking forward to a peaceful life,” he said. humaneworld.org/en/blog/china-…
