Whois & Analysis for americanhumane.org

The American Humane Association (AHA) is an organization founded in 1877, committed to ensuring the safety, welfare and well-being of animals.

AHA's leadership programs are first to serve in promoting and nurturing the bonds between animals and humans.

It was previously called the International Humane Association, before changing its name in 1878.

In 1940, it became the sole monitoring body for the humane treatment of animals on the sets of Hollywood films and other broadcast productions.

AHA is best known for its trademarked certification "No Animals Were Harmed", which appears at the end of film or television credits.

It has also run the Red Star Animal Emergency Services since 1916.

In 2000, AHA formed the Farm Animal Services program, an animal welfare label system for food products.

The Association is currently headquartered in Washington D.C. It is a section 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

Safety is the state of being "safe" (from French sauf), the condition of being protected from harm or other non-desirable outcomes.

Safety can also refer to the control of recognized hazards in order to achieve an acceptable level of risk.

Animal welfare is the well-being of animals.

The standards of "good" animal welfare vary considerably between different contexts.

These standards are under constant review and are debated, created and revised by animal welfare groups, legislators and academics worldwide.

Animal welfare science uses various measures, such as longevity, disease, immunosuppression, behavior, physiology, and reproduction, although there is debate about which of these indicators provide the best information.
