To commemorate the 50th anniversary of The HSUS in 2004, the
articles below offer an overview of the achievements and
individuals that shaped the organization during its first five
decades. Originally published in our member magazine,
All Animals, these
stories do more than simply open windows into our past—they
also shine light on our future, showing where we must focus our
efforts next.
To read more about the organization's past, see Protecting All Animals: A
Fifty-Year History of The Humane Society of the United
States by Bernard Unti, Ph.D., Humane Society Press's
lively history of our organization—and of the broader humane
movement—during the last half-century.
