Humane Society InternationalYou’re making the world a safer place for animals—thank you
                 
                    
                          
                       
                        Next week marks the beginning of Yulin’s annual dog and cat meat “festival,” and we’re lucky to have animal lovers like you by our side. It’s because of you that momentum is building across the globe to help prevent animal suffering.


                        Sincerely,

                        Major victories for animals in the UK 
                       
                        We celebrated two major victories for animals in the UK in the last few months. Following our successful campaigns, Parliament passed the Glue Traps (Offences) Bill, meaning it will soon be illegal in England for the public to use these cruel devices, and the Animal Welfare (Sentience) Bill also became law. This means new laws will have to take into account the welfare needs of animals as sentient beings with emotions and feelings.
                       

                                 
                                Progress in Mexico
                                 
                                 

                                Yucatan, Mexico celebrates its fifth year of a cruelty-free Kots Kaal Pato festival, saving countless animals from a cruel fate. HSI campaigned against this cruelty, and this transformation to a festival of kindness is due largely in part to animal lovers like you who spoke up.
                                 
                                 
                             
                                 
                                Cage-free around the globe
                                 
                                 

                                 In Chile, egg farmers using cage-free hen housing systems have formed the country’s first union association to support cage-free production. Restaurants, small businesses and farmers in Malaysia teamed up for the first time to transition to cage-free eggs after businesses collaborated with HSI on their purchasing policies.
                                 
                                 
                             

                                 
                                Cruelty-free schools
                                 
                                 

                                Five Sodexo Canada accounts committed to transition 20% of menu options to plant-based, as part of the company’s nationwide collaboration with HSI. Similarly, in Brazil, municipalities and schools have committed to swap out animal-based meals for plant-based meals one day a week – taking animals off of more than 12.5 million plates – and has prioritized animal-free safety assessments of school supplies. Previously, rats and rabbits were routinely used to test school supplies like glue and paints.

                                Save Ralph won the Jury Award and the People’s Voice Award at this year’s Webby Awards. HSI also recently held a Save Ralph exhibition at the National Assembly in South Korea to raise awareness amongst lawmakers and to urge them to pass a new bill, the PAAM Act, to save animals from animal testing.
