Group that aims to stop human or animal suffering due to cruelty or other reasons
This article is about the term describing the type of group. For the American animal welfare organization, see the Humane Society of the United States. For the British lifesaving organization, see Royal Humane Society.
A humane society is a group that aims to stop cruelty to animals. In many countries, the term is used mostly for societies for the prevention of cruelty to animals (SPCA). In the United Kingdom, and historically in the United States, such societies provide waterway rescue, prevention and recovery services, or may give awards for saving human life (e.g., Glasgow Humane Society and Massachusetts Humane Society).
