Change is on the moveAround the worldYou made great strides for animal health, hope, and happiness this year, shaping a kinder future across the globe for creatures large and small.

Healthier lives on farms and in homesFor the first time ever, the world’s meat industry came face-to-face with an animal welfare organization at the World Meat Congress. World Animal Protection called on 600 of the most powerful industry leaders to move to better farm animal welfare.

And, thanks to you, 192,482 dogs were spared the suffering of rabies through vaccination. You vaccinated dogs in six countries, and helped guide governments and nations in their efforts to eliminate rabies.

From desperate hope to critical help We celebrated a milestone—50 years of helping animals in disasters! Your achievements in 2014 included helping over 70,000 animals after Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines, and showing farmers how to protect their livestock from harm.

Happy to be wild and free

You helped end the bear bile tourism industry in Ha Long Bay, Vietnam. And you brought about the surrender of 11 bear baiting bears to the Balkasar santuary in Pakistan.

You deserve our Gold Award for “Best Animal Welfare Initiative” for wildlife-friendly tourism campaigns, awarded to us by World Responsible Travel Awards!

We achieved the commitment of major national corporations to making humane sustainable changes in their business practices. Watch for the exciting announcements coming soon!

Our new ‘Before They Book‘ campaign has already seen significant success in educating over 450,000 tourists and tour operators of the cruelty and abuse of wild animal attractions such as elephant rides. Nearly 10,000 Canadians like you have signed our Change.org petition and pledged to end the exploitation of wildlife in tourism entertainment!
