At Humane World for Animals, we believe that knowledge is the key to better lives for pets, wildlife and the people who care for them. Our expert-curated Animal Care Resources library provides trusted, science-backed guidance on pet adoption, health, behavior, and humane solutions for coexisting with wildlife.
We've compiled these resources to help you make informed, compassionate decisions—whether you’re welcoming a new pet, navigating behavior challenges or seeking humane ways to manage wildlife conflicts.

Gerbils can be good pets for older children or families tight on space, but they are not for everyone. Learn how to decide whether to adopt one of these little explorers.

Thinking about adopting a bunny? Learn more to make an informed decision about the commitment they require.

You can be happy with pets, even if you're allergic. Don't just cope. Improve your quality of life and reduce symptoms via air cleaners, regular baths, and shots or sprays.


Consider the risks to your health, the environment and the animals. Turtles live long and it's often illegal to release them outside. Are you ready for decades of commitment?
