Born Free USA is a national animal advocacy organization, whose mission is to
end the suffering of wild animals in captivity, rescue individual animals in
need, protect wildlife � including highly endangered species � in their natural
habitats, and encourage compassionate conservation globally.
Every year,
millions of animals suffer in fur farms and circus cages. In our campaigns
against such cruelties, we use powerful tools including legislation, public
education, litigation, and grassroots networking. We also work actively with
media to spread the word about challenges facing animals.
Our primary
campaign areas currently include animals used in entertainment, captive exotic
animals, trapping & fur, and the international wildlife trade.
The Born Free
USA Primate Sanctuary, located in Dilley, Texas, offers more than 500 primates,
many of whom were rescued from abusive situations in laboratories, roadside
zoos, and private possession, life in as natural an environment as possible with
minimal human interference.
