We’re preparing to support Navajo Nation communities affected by severe flooding in New Mexico and Arizona. Working alongside our local partner, RezRoads Rescue, our Animal Rescue Team will provide pet food and essential supplies and assess the needs of animals and their people.

Ever since the European Union listed American mink as an invasive species, countries have the option to seek the special permit from the European Commission to allow mink farming to continue. Denmark has decided not to pursue this exemption.

Never. Skip. BEANSDAY. 🫘

We've bean waiting for you.

Every Wednesday, we're swapping meat for beans with Beansday™.

That's it. That's the whole assignment.

If Kevin Bacon can become Kevin Bean once a week, we can all make one simple swap.

Good drummers keep the beat. Good meals are plant-based. Good choices help animals.

Beaver activity can sometimes create challenges like flooding and tree damage, but most conflicts can be resolved using humane, effective and long-lasting solutions while allowing these important animals to continue providing valuable ecological benefits.

Hi, Alex. The priority must be making sure every horse has a safe, humane future. Dozens of rescues, sanctuaries and nonprofit organizations, including Humane World for Animals, have offered placement options. Additionally, the legislation and state law prohibits the horses from being sold for slaughter.

Passage of the bill isn’t the end of our responsibility to these horses. It’s the beginning of making good on the promise of a safe transition. The people whose livelihoods depend on this industry need to be part of the transition, too. The legislation requires the city to create a workforce transition program for carriage drivers, including career counseling and referrals to employment opportunities in both the public and private sectors. Humane World for Animals supports a substantive livelihood transition for everyone affected by the phaseout.

We are working alongside Voters For Animal Rights, the ASPCA, Animal Legal Defense Fund and a growing coalition of equine rescues and sanctuaries prepared to help provide safe futures for the horses retired from the carriage industry.

Ending carriage operations would not erase the legacy of carriage horses in New York City; it would honor the full measure of what they have meant to us while ensuring a humane transition for the horses and the people whose lives have been tied to them. https://t.co/HWFd2jNNkj

VICTORY! The Danish government has decided to pull the plug on its mink fur farming industry, putting animal welfare ahead of the commercial interests of the country’s seven remaining fur farms.

For generations, horses have pulled carriages through New York City's busy streets. Today, they are one step closer to the future they deserve.

Every horse deserves the chance to live free from the demands of city streets. Thanks to years of advocacy and countless supporters who spoke up, that future is now within reach.

[Humane World for Animals @humaneworldorg]

@MyWickedTribe The legislation and state law prohibits the horses from being sold for slaughter! 🙂

Myths and misinformation about wolves have serious consequences for wolf conservation and recovery and stoke unnecessary fear. 

This #WolfAwarenessWeek, we’re celebrating wolves and fighting for their protection. Story Warren with Humane World for Animals highlights this issue further in her essay: https://t.co/y21qboBeeT

For decades, New York City's carriage horse industry has operated on a fantasy that these horse-drawn vehicles can carry some romance of an earlier time. But animals are not symbols; they are living, breathing individuals with needs, instincts and intentions all their own. By ending the use of horse-drawn carriages, the City Council has recognized that no maintenance of tradition should come at the expense of risks to animals and people. https://t.co/XIKygaoMOe

@NativeNYC65 Nope! Dozens of rescues, sanctuaries and nonprofit organizations, including Humane World for Animals, have offered placement options. Additionally, the legislation and state law prohibits the horses from being sold for slaughter! 🩵

Lawsuit aims to restore protections for threatened wildlife. Conservation groups say rule rescinding ‘blanket’ protections goes against intent of Endangered Species Act. https://t.co/lJK2s2v9st

WE DID IT! Yesterday, the Beagle Bill was signed into law by Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro!

Pennsylvania is now the 13th state to prohibit the sale of animal-tested cosmetics and the 18th state to give dogs and cats the opportunity to be adopted after the experiments have ended.

Victory for horses in New York City! 🐴🎉

After years of advocacy, NYC has passed a historic bill setting the city on a path to end horse-drawn carriages. This landmark victory moves NYC toward a safer, kinder future for horses who should never have to navigate crowded city streets.

Thank you to everyone who spoke up, took action and refused to give up on these horses. Together, we've helped make history.
