Some of PETA’s work supported by Vanguard Society Members
From life‑saving rescue operations to long‑term community transformation, PETA’s Global Compassion Fund fuels an extraordinary range of programmes that bring relief, protection, and hope to animals worldwide. It enables rapid‑response teams to reach animals in crisis zones – from war‑torn regions to areas struck by natural disasters – delivering food, veterinary care, and safe transport when every second counts. The fund also powers large‑scale sterilisation initiatives that prevent countless dogs and cats from being born into homelessness and suffering, and it supports humane education projects that inspire compassion in young people and help communities shift toward kinder, animal‑friendly practices. By contributing to the Global Compassion Fund, supporters make it possible for rescuers and partner organisations to act instantly and effectively whenever animals are in danger, ensuring that help arrives precisely when it is needed most.
PETA’s Research Modernisation Deal is a comprehensive proposal calling for the UK to shift away from animal experimentation and adopt modern, human‑relevant scientific methods. The initiative highlights extensive evidence that animal studies often fail to translate into effective treatments for humans, contributing to high drug‑development failure rates and wasted resources. PETA’s plan outlines a structured pathway to phase out animal use in research, testing, and education by eliminating areas where animals are already known to be poor predictors, increasing funding for non‑animal technologies, improving transparency in research evaluation, and training scientists in advanced alternatives.
Animal Rahat, a life-saving organisation that’s supported by PETA, was founded in 2003 in order to alleviate the misery endured by bullocks, donkeys, and other working animals in India. Animal Rahat – whose name means “relief” in Hindi – provides essential veterinary care, rest, and rehabilitation for animals who are injured, overworked, or abandoned, while also helping owners adopt more humane practices that reduce suffering. Its teams carry out rescues, offer emergency aid, run sanctuary spaces where animals can finally live in peace, and deliver community education that fosters long‑term, compassionate change. Through this multifaceted approach, Animal Rahat brings dignity, safety, and genuine relief to tens of thousands of animals who would otherwise have nowhere to turn.
PETA’s work in Petra exposes the daily torment endured by more than a thousand donkeys, horses, mules, and camels forced to carry tourists through the ancient city, where they are routinely beaten, overworked, and denied proper rest, water, and veterinary care. Many suffer from open wounds, lameness, and injuries caused by chains, whips, and ill‑fitting saddles, with some even subjected to deliberate cruelty. Before the PETA‑supported free veterinary clinic opened, these exhausted and injured animals had virtually no chance of receiving help. Today, the clinic offers a lifeline, providing dozens of desperate animals every day with food, compassionate handling, and essential medical treatment. Alongside calls for a full transition to modern, motorised transport throughout Petra, this vital on‑the‑ground care is helping to ease suffering while pushing for lasting, systemic change.
PETA’s 2025 victories highlight a year filled with bold action, systemic progress, and life‑changing wins for animals. Read about universities abandoning cruel experiments, governments taking meaningful steps toward ending animal testing, and major factory‑farm proposals being defeated. You’ll also find stories of compassionate rescues in crisis zones, expanding spay/neuter initiatives, and powerful campaigns that pushed companies and institutions to adopt kinder, animal‑friendly practices. Together, these achievements show a movement gaining real momentum and transforming the world for animals.
