In case you didn't know:

You know about PETA, but most of these other organizations try to hide their true anti-hunting intentions with smoke and mirrors.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals

Center for Biological Diversity

Friends of Animals

it should be noted that The Humane Society, or "The Big H" is not affiliated with your local humane society. Giving to them to help support shelters does not send money to the federal version by the same name and that the Big H is the largest anti-hunting group there is. they outdo Peta

i think. but you undoubtedly have a local humane society as well and they have no affiliation with "The Humane Society". So if some cat lady wants $20 to help feed some stray cats, you can be assured you're not donating to an anti-hunting group. However, of course it should be noted that the local group may also be anti-hunting... but generally they're running on shoe string budgets and just trying to feed and shelter as many strays that they can.

American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals

As the first established “humane” organization in the Western Hemisphere, ASPCA rescues animals from abuse and works to pass “humane” laws. It also supports laws to prevent keeping dogs in outside kennels, and is against all forms of hound hunting. CN: 84.43 (3 stars); Program Expenses: 74.4 percent; Fundraising Expenses: 20.1 percent; 2017 Revenue: $217,398,213; www.aspca.org.

That would be correct:

The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) is a radical animal rights group that inaccurately portrays itself as a mainstream animal care organization. The words “humane society” may appear on its letterhead, but HSUS is not affiliated with your local animal shelter. Despite the omnipresent dogs and cats in its fundraising materials and television commercials, it’s not an organization that runs spay/neuter programs or takes in stray, neglected, and abused pets. And quite unlike the common image of animal protection agencies as cash-strapped organizations dedicated to animal welfare, HSUS has become the wealthiest animal rights organization on earth.

The ASPCA is anti-hunting.

https://www.aspca.org/about-us/aspca-policy-and-position-statements/hunting

“The ASPCA is opposed to hunting animals for sport, even if the animals killed in this way are subsequently consumed. The ASPCA does recognize that wildlife management may be necessary in situations where animal and human interests collide, but urges that management strategies be nonlethal wherever possible and never include avoidable suffering or distress.”

I don't donate to the aspca, however after research and listening to a few podcasts on these organizations the general takeaway was that this is their stance, but they don't actively campaign or go after hunters like the Humane societey and peta.

this thread would be remiss without a few organizations that aren't species specific and are out there fighting the good fight against those listed by steve

don't just "boycott" the bad. Support the good.

NWTF, Rockymoutain elk foundation, wild sheep foundation and numerous fish organizations are all pretty good too for species specific groups.

Agreed there a many "good organizations" fighting the cause. Unfortunately they don't receive the funding and support  the anti's do.
