AMERICAN HUMANE CONSERVATIONIN THE FACE OF WHAT SCIENTISTS ARE CALLING A "SIXTH MASS EXTINCTION" WITH SPECIES DISAPPEARING AT AN UNPRECEDENTED RATE, ZOOS AND AQUARIUMS ARE PLAYING AN OUTSIZED ROLE IN PRESERVING THE VITAL WEB OF LIFE ON EARTH. TO ELEVATE STANDARDS AND SHINE A SPOTLIGHT ON THOSE WHO TAKE GOOD CARE OF THEIR ANIMALS, AMERICAN HUMANE DEVELOPED THE FIRST-EVER INDEPENDENT, GLOBAL, AND SCIENCE-BASED HUMANE CERTIFICATION DEDICATED SOLELY TO HELPING ENSURE THE WELFARE AND HUMANE TREATMENT OF THE ANIMALS IN THE WORLD'S ZOOS, AQUARIUMS, AND CONSERVATION CENTERS. ANIMAL WELFARE STANDARDS ARE REGULARLY REVIEWED BY THE PROGRAM'S SCIENTIFIC ADVISORY COMMITTEE, AN INTERNATIONAL GROUP OF ANIMAL SCIENCE EXPERTS, VETERINARIANS, AND ETHICISTS.FEWER THAN THREE PERCENT OF ZOOLOGICAL INSTITUTIONS WORLDWIDE ARE ACCREDITED OR CERTIFIED. WHILE INDUSTRY-AFFILIATED ASSOCIATIONS OFFER PROGRAMS FOR BROAD ACCREDITATION OF BUSINESS PRACTICES, AMERICAN HUMANE CERTIFIED IS THE ONLY INDEPENDENT, THIRD-PARTY CERTIFICATION EFFORT SOLELY DEVOTED TO THE HUMANE TREATMENT OF ANIMALS IN ZOOS, AQUARIUMS, AND OTHER CONSERVATION ORGANIZATIONS.THE AMERICAN HUMANE CERTIFIED PROGRAM OFFERS THREE LEVELS OF TRANSPARENT AND CREDIBLE ASSURANCE: UNIQUELY QUALIFIED, TRUSTED HUMANE ORGANIZATION: AMERICAN HUMANE IS THE WORLD'S LARGEST CERTIFIER OF ANIMAL WELFARE, PROTECTING MORE THAN 1 BILLION ANIMALS AROUND THE GLOBE WITH THE MOST RECOGNIZED, CREDIBLE, AND RESPECTED HUMANE PROGRAMS.

HELPING PROTECT SPECIES IN ZOOLOGICAL SETTINGS WORLDWIDE: AMERICAN HUMANE ADVANCES THE WELFARE AND HUMANE TREATMENT OF NEARLY 500,000 ANIMALS AT 79 LEADING ZOOLOGICAL FACILITIES AROUND THE WORLD. FEWER THAN ONE PERCENT OF ZOOS AND AQUARIUMS HAVE EARNED OUR PRESTIGIOUS HUMANE CERTIFIED SEAL OF APPROVAL. GLOBAL EXPANSION: MAJOR INSTITUTIONS AROUND THE WORLD ARE LINING UP TO BECOME AMERICAN HUMANE CERTIFIED AND WE NOW CERTIFY MAJOR ZOOLOGICAL FACILITIES IN DOZENS OF COUNTRIES IN NORTH AMERICA, THE CARIBBEAN, EUROPE, ASIA AND NOW EXPANDING INTO THE MIDDLE EAST. AWARD-WINNING CONSERVATION FILM LAUNCHED: TO COUNTER THE "SIXTH MASS EXTINCTION" NOW TAKING PLACE AND RALLY A NEW GENERATION OF ADVOCATES FOR THE PRESERVATION OF EARTH'S PRECIOUS ANIMALS, AMERICAN HUMANE CREATED ITS FIRST DOCUMENTARY FILM, "ESCAPE FROM EXTINCTION," NARRATED BY OSCAR-WINNING ACTRESS DAME HELEN MIRREN. THE FILM IS GALVANIZING ANIMAL LOVERS AROUND THE WORLD AND WAS NAMED THE "BEST ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTARY" OF 2020 AT DOC LA AND IS PLAYED IN THEATERS AROUND THE WORLD. THE SEQUEL TO AMERICAN HUMANE'S AWARD-WINNING DOCUMENTARY, ESCAPE FROM EXTINCTION REWILDING, NARRATED BY ACADEMY AWARD WINNER MERYL STREEP, WILL BE RELEASED SEPTEMBER 27, 2024.

OTHERAMERICAN HUMANE'S LOIS POPE LIFE CENTER FOR MILITARY AFFAIRSAMERICAN HUMANE IS COMMITTED TO HELPING AMERICA'S VETERANS AND RECOGNIZING THEIR HEROIC CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE UNITED STATES BOTH ON AND OFF THE BATTLEFIELD. AMERICAN HUMANE HAS BEEN FIRST TO SERVE WITH THE U.S. MILITARY FOR OVER A CENTURY: THE ANIMAL RESCUE PROGRAM WAS BORN ON THE BATTLEFIELDS OF WORLD WAR I EUROPE, WHERE, AT THE REQUEST OF THE U.S. SECRETARY OF WAR, VOLUNTEERS WITH AMERICAN HUMANE DEPLOYED TO RESCUE AND CARE FOR 68,000 WOUNDED WAR HORSES EACH MONTH.WE CONTINUE TO PROUDLY HONOR THIS LEGACY TODAY THROUGH AMERICAN HUMANE'S LOIS POPE LIFE CENTER FOR MILITARY AFFAIRS. THE PROGRAM, FOUNDED THROUGH THE GENEROSITY OF PHILANTHROPIST AND PASSIONATE VETERANS ADVOCATE, LOIS POPE, OFFERS MEANINGFUL SUPPORT TO OUR VETERANS WITH TWO KEY AREAS OF FOCUS: FIRST, PROVIDING LIFESAVING SERVICE DOGS (PUPS4PATRIOTS) TO VETERANS AND FIRST RESPONDERS SUFFERING FROM POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS (PTS) AND/OR TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY (TBI); SECOND, REUNITING RETIRED MILITARY WORKING DOGS WITH THEIR FORMER HANDLERS.AMERICAN HUMANE HERO DOG AWARDS THE AMERICAN HUMANE HERO DOG AWARDS IS AN ANNUAL, NATIONWIDE COMPETITION THAT SEARCHES OUT AND RECOGNIZES AMERICA'S HERO DOGS OFTEN ORDINARY DOGS WHO DO EXTRAORDINARY THINGS, WHETHER IT'S SAVING LIVES ON THE BATTLEFIELD, LENDING SIGHT OR HEARING TO A HUMAN COMPANION, OR HELPING PEOPLE ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS. DOGS ARE HONORED IN MULTIPLE CATEGORIES FOR THE HERO DOG AWARDS: LAW ENFORCEMENT AND FIRST RESPONDER DOGS THIS CATEGORY BROADLY INCLUDES DOGS THAT ARE CRITICAL TO FIRST RESPONDERS, THAT SAFEGUARD THE PUBLIC, AND THAT FIND THE MISSING AND VICTIMS OF DISASTERS. LAW ENFORCEMENT DOGS' ABILITY TO HELP PROTECT THEIR HUMAN HANDLERS, THWART LAWBREAKERS, AND FIND EVIDENCE MAKES THEM TRUE PARTNERS TO FIRST RESPONDERS. SCENT DETECTIONS DOGS CAN ACCURATELY DETECT A VARIETY OF TARGETS, INCLUDING CORRECTLY IDENTIFYING A MULTITUDE OF DISEASES AND FLORA AND FAUNA, AND ARE USED TO DETECT ILLICIT SUBSTANCES, DRUGS, FIRE ACCELERANTS, FIREARMS, OR EXPLOSIVES. SEARCH AND RESCUE DOGS ARE TRAINED TO FIND THE MISSING, FROM THOSE LOST IN THE WILDERNESS OR CITY TO VICTIMS OF ACCIDENTS AND NATURAL DISASTERS. SERVICE AND GUIDE/HEARING DOGS SERVICE DOGS ARE TRAINED TO PERFORM SPECIFIC TASKS FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES AS DEFINED BY THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT (ADA). THEY CAN BE TRAINED TO WORK WITH PEOPLE WITH PHYSICAL MOBILITY NEEDS OR LIMITATIONS, OR PEOPLE WHO NEED ALERTS TO MEDICAL CONDITIONS. THEY CAN ALSO SERVE AS THE "EYES AND EARS" FOR THE BLIND AND/OR DEAF OR PERFORM TASKS FOR THOSE WITH PSYCHIATRIC DISABILITIES SUCH AS POST TRAUMATIC STRESS OR TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY. THESE SPECIALLY TRAINED DOGS CAN EVEN HELP BY RETRIEVING OR MANIPULATING OBJECTS THAT ARE OUT OF THEIR PERSON'S REACH, ALERTING BYSTANDERS AND RETRIEVING HELP FOR THEIR HANDLER, LEADING WHILE AVOIDING DISTRACTIONS AND OBSTACLES, AND MANY OTHER INDIVIDUAL TASKS AS NEEDED BY A PERSON WITH A DISABILITY. THESE HEROES NOT ONLY IMPROVE THE LIVES OF THE PEOPLE WITH WHOM THEY WORK, BUT ALSO KEEP THEM SAFE EVERY DAY. THERAPY DOGS CREDENTIALED ANIMAL-ASSISTED THERAPY (AAT) DOGS ARE PART OF A THERAPEUTIC PLAN TO AID WITH PHYSICAL, SOCIAL, EMOTIONAL, AND COGNITIVE CHALLENGES FOR PERSONS OTHER THAN THE DOG'S OWNER/HANDLER. AAT HAS BEEN SHOWN TO HELP ENHANCE THE LIVES OF PEOPLE IN NEED SUCH AS CHILDREN WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED ABUSE OR NEGLECT, PATIENTS UNDERGOING CHEMOTHERAPY OR OTHER DIFFICULT MEDICAL TREATMENTS, AND MILITARY VETERANS AND THEIR FAMILIES WHO ARE STRUGGLING TO COPE WITH THE EFFECTS OF WARTIME MILITARY SERVICE. STUDIES HAVE FOUND THAT AAT LOWERS BLOOD PRESSURE, REDUCES STRESS AND ENHANCES A PATIENT'S ABILITY TO ACHIEVE PHYSICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL WELLNESS. MILITARY DOGS MILITARY WORKING DOGS FIRST ENTERED THE SERVICE IN 1942 TO SERVE IN THE ARMY'S K-9 CORPS. TODAY, THESE DOGS ARE STILL PLAYING AN ACTIVE ROLE IN SEARCHING FOR EXPLOSIVES AND SEIZING ENEMIES. MILITARY WORKING DOGS HAVE BEEN USED BY THE U.S. ARMED FORCES SINCE WORLD WAR I. IN WORLD WAR II, 436 SCOUT DOGS WALKED COMBAT PATROLS OVERSEAS, OFTEN DETECTING THE ENEMY AT 1,000 YARDS, LONG BEFORE THE ENEMY BECAME AWARE OF THEM. DOGS CONTINUED TO SERVE WITH DISTINCTION IN OTHER CONFLICTS, SUCH AS KOREA, WHERE THE ARMY USED ABOUT 1,500 DOGS, PRIMARILY FOR GUARD DUTY. DURING THE VIETNAM WAR, NEARLY 4,000 DOGS WERE EMPLOYED AND, OFFICIALLY, 281 WERE KILLED IN ACTION. TODAY'S CONFLICTS INCLUDE DOGS AT EVERY LEVEL, STILL SERVING OUR COUNTRY, HELPING TO PROTECT OUR TROOPS. EMERGING HERO AND SHELTER DOGS JUST AS OUR UNDERSTANDING OF ANIMAL BEHAVIOR AND SCIENCE IS EVER EXPANDING, SO TOO DO THE AMAZING STORIES OF THE HUMAN ANIMAL BOND IN ACTION. DOGS IN THIS CATEGORY CAN BE NOMINATED FOR DOING HEROIC DEEDS, LARGE OR SMALL; FOR OVERCOMING DIFFICULT ODDS; OR BY HAVING A REMARKABLE RESCUE STORY LIKE THE MILLIONS OF HOMELESS DOGS IN SHELTERS, ON THE STREETS, OR NEEDING HELP FROM UNFAVORABLE SITUATIONS. WHETHER IT WAS A SECOND CHANCE AND A NEW "LEASH" ON LIFE OR JUST A PERFECT FIT THAT WAS MEANT TO BE, THESE DOGS HIGHLIGHT WHAT IT MEANS TO BE MAN'S BEST FRIEND.AFTER VOTING BY THE AMERICAN PUBLIC, WINNERS IN EACH CATEGORY ARE HONORED AT THE STAR-STUDDED AMERICAN HUMANE HERO DOG AWARDS GALA IN PALM BEACH, FLORIDA.THIS POPULAR, YEARLY NATIONAL CAMPAIGN DRAWS HUNDREDS OF COURAGEOUS CANINES FROM ACROSS THE COUNTRY, MORE THAN A MILLION VOTES BY THE AMERICAN PUBLIC, AND FOUR BILLION MEDIA IMPRESSIONS, INCLUDING FEATURES BY NBC NIGHTLY NEWS WITH LESTER HOLT KID'S EDITION, TODAY SHOW AND PEOPLE MAGAZINE ALL CULMINATING IN A CELEBRITY-STUDDED, NATIONAL TELEVISION BROADCAST.
