Ending Wildlife Exploitation

We push companies and governments to protect wild animals’ right to a wild life in habitats that are thriving. We fight to eliminate the use of wild animals or their parts.

Ending Factory Farming

We move companies, governments, and individuals to build a more plant-forward food system and stop the growth of cruel factory farms, which destroy animals, ecosystems, and communities.
