Since its founding in 1993, the Humane Society Wildlife Land Trust, alone or in partnership with other conservation groups, has participated in the protection of wildlife habitat in 39 states and nine foreign countries. Working directly with private landowners, we have established more than 100 permanent wildlife sanctuaries. On these safe havens for wild animals, recreational and commercial hunting and trapping will always be prohibited.
