Americans who enjoy meat, cheese, eggs, and milk may soon come to
regard HSUS as a new PETA, with an even broader reach. HSUS has over $113
million in assets and an annual operating budget of $69 million to spend on
programs dreamed up by its new rising stars. And the group's recent merger with
The Fund For Animals will likely bump its budget into the $80 million range.
Most of that enormous budget comes in the form of small donations from
average Americans, many of whom think they're supporting their local "humane
society." HSUS's fundraising mailers often use photographs of dogs and cats
that imply a connection. But as HSUS itself admits (in a disclosure buried deep
within its website): [T]he Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) is not
affiliated with, nor is it a parent organization for, local humane societies,
animal shelters, or animal care and control agencies ... The HSUS does not
operate or have direct control over any animal shelter.
