Our Work

Humane Society International Australia is an animal welfare and conservation organisation. We envision a world where people treat animals and nature with respect and compassion. We work across four strategic areas to deliver on this vision.

TAKE ACTION: End Trophy Hunting Imports

Did you know Australia is ranked 10th in the world for the number of protected mammal trophies imported into the country? Wildlife belongs in the wild, not on the wall.

TAKE ACTION: End NSW and QLD’s shark cull

Nets floating off NSW and QLD beaches kill hundreds of sharks, turtles, dolphins, and rays every year for no safety benefit to the public. Help us end the cull.
