Humane World for Animals is fighting to end captive/canned hunting. From the trophy hunting of mountain lions to killing coyotes for prizes, wild animals big and small unfortunately find themselves in the crosshairs of those who kill for sport.

Humane World for Animals is dedicated to ending animal cruelty by tackling its root causes and driving lasting change. See some of the ways we're making an impact around the world through advocacy, rescue and education.

Social media is flooded with heart-warming images of visitors cuddling lion cubs and “rescued” lions walking peacefully alongside visitors and volunteers. However, the interaction with these animals is falsely portrayed. The cuddled and petted cubs and older lions are anything but safe, loved and rescued from an otherwise doomed life.

For over 70 years, you’ve known us as the Humane Society of the United States and Humane Society International. Now, we’re uniting under Humane World for Animals to better reflect who we are, our bold work, and our global mission.
