About the Organisation

We are a nonprofit organization founded in New York City in 2011 by a group of activists with a core belief that animals are not here for us, they are here with us. This planet belongs to ALL beings who inhabit it – human and non-human animals alike – and as such, non-human animals deserve to have the same basic rights that humans have, to life, liberty and the pursuit of their happiness. It’s our planet, and theirs too!
