Desc	(COMPANION ANIMALS) HSI's Spay/Neuter clinics in Latin America performed surgery on over 14,000 animals. HSI's dog management and mass vaccination programs across India and the Philippines resulted in sterilizing nearly 15,000 dogs and vaccinating over 150,000 dogs. HSI's first on-the-ground spay/neuter program in Mauritius, Africa has reached 1,800 dogs. HSI permanently closed 13 dog meat farms in South Korea since 2014, and has rescued and rehomed over 1,600 dogs from these farms. Working with partners in the US, Canada and the United Kingdom, rescued Korean dogs are receiving all the care and individual attention they require and made available for adoption. HSI submitted a petition to the Korean government calling for an end to the dog meat trade with over 1 million signatures. The Indonesia dog meat campaign has resulted in the Indonesian government pledging to ban the dog meat trade. HSI's Vietnam campaign led to the capital (continued from Part III, line 4a) city government of Hanoi making a public plea for citizens to avoid dog meat consumption due to the connection to rabies. Further, HSI responds to disasters around the world by providing rescue efforts, medical equipment/supplies and food. HSI responded to assist animals during the eruption of Vulcan Del Fuego in Guatemala and flooding in India assisting more than 2,000 animals through rescue, feed, and veterinary care.	Desc

Desc	(WILDLIFE) HSI wildlife programs cover a wide range of issues from campaigning against the commercial killing of wildlife (Canadian seals, sharks, turtle, whales, rhinos, elephants, trophy hunted species) to ending trade in wildlife and wildlife parts to resolving human-wildlife conflict in a humane manner (e.g. elephants in southern Africa, badgers and rodents in the UK). The HSI wildlife department had the following program accomplishments in 2018: Hawaii stopped issuing permits to collect marine wildlife for commercial purposes; Hong Kong agreed to phase out domestic sale, import and export of ivory over three years; Taiwan agreed to ban commercial sale of elephant ivory beginning in 2020; UK's ivory ban received royal assent; Luxemburg announced stricter restrictions on ivory sales; Netherlands announced a ban on export of raw ivory; leading auction houses, Sotheby's and Bonhams' pledged to not auction rhino horns. (Continued from Part III, Line 4b) Further, HSI trained 250 wildlife enforcement officers in Vietnam on a new penal code and trained 80 officers that work on the Vietnam-China border on combating wildlife trafficking. HSI also launched Japan's No Ivory campaign with a renown athlete of Japan's legendary baseball team with more than 60 press stories in the Japanese language press. Dozens of press stories covered HSI's opposition to the U.S. Department of the Interior's pro-trophy hunting advisory group, the International Wildlife Conservation Council. HSI trained 18 government delegates from six countries on shark and ray trade regulation at a workshop in the Philippines, plus 43 people from six countries at a workshop in South Africa. In addition: Cargolux banned the carriage of wildlife trophies; Illinois banned ivory and rhino horn sales; and the International Whaling Commission maintained its ban on commercial whaling, which was under substantive attack, while agreeing to expand its work on other threats to whales and other cetaceans.

Desc	(FARM ANIMALS) HSI continued to lead the global movement to end the lifelong confinement of egg-laying hens in battery cages in 2018 by working with 40 companies around the world to adopt cage-free egg procurement policies. Highlights included: Argentina's first-ever cage-free egg commitment by Havana, a major Argentinean industrial baking company and one of the largest coffee shop and baked goods chains in Latin America; Carrefour, Brazil's largest food retailer, became the country's first-ever supermarket chain to commit to only selling cage-free eggs in all its stores; Colombina, a leading Colombian food manufacturer, committed to source exclusively cage-free eggs in the making of all its products; and four new Singaporean companies announced cage-free egg commitments, including SaladStop!, a leading restaurant company with operations in eight countries around the world. (Continued from Part III, line 4c) In India, after four years of advancing HSI's petition through the legal system, the High Court of Delhi banned the establishment of battery cages throughout the nation of India and has directed the Union of India to regulate the poultry industry. The Central government issued orders to all States and Union Territories in India to ensure compliance with the ruling. Concerned authorities are directed to ensure that no new battery cages are installed in any poultry farms/facilities. Globally, in terms of plant-based work, HSI trained almost 900 institutional chefs from public schools, Universities, and factories, among other institutions, around the world on plant-based cooking and with those decision makers to transition millions of meals from meat-centric to 100% plant-based.

$2,029,006	$250,730	$0	ANIMAL TESTING The Brazilian state of Rio de Janeiro became the first jurisdiction in the Americas to ban cosmetic animal testing and sales. Minas Gerais became the 7th Brazilian state to ban animal testing for cosmetics. HSI also intervened in a legal challenge by the Brazilian cosmetics industry association regarding the constitutionality of two of the state bills HSI has helped to secure. A Federal bill to ban cosmetic animal testing advanced politically in Australia, Brazil and Canada. Similar legislation is being considered in Chile, South Africa and the United States. The world's second largest beauty brand has formally joined HSI's global campaign to end cosmetic animal testing. Further, HSI negotiated with the South Korean government to enact a significant revision to its chemical law. This change requires the prioritization of animal testing alternatives and establishes a 'last resort' principle for new animal testing. Driven by HSI, Japan and Korea have officially removed the year-long pesticide poisoning test in beagle dogs and HSI organized and/or supported 7 non-animal testing themed conferences, events and trainings in 2018: Canada, China, Europe, India, Japan, Korea, and the US. HSI contributed animal protective language to Brazilian chemicals legislation. HSI is also the only animal NGO represented on the governments' new chemicals stakeholder committee: 2 reports from two workshops held in Brazil and the United States were published in the science journal Drug Discovery Today. HSI-funded critical reviews of human disease research that was published by experts in liver, Parkinson's, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. And HSI's work with the India Council of Medical Research prompted a commitment to establish an ICMR Centre for Excellence in Human Pathway-Based Biomedicine and Risk Assessment.
$812,994	$73,229	$0	CONFRONTING CRUELTY Costa Rica rescued 315 dogs from extreme cruelty cases (including hoarding, dogs used for wildlife hunting, abandonment, and dog fighting). HSI led this collaboration with the National Animal Health Department. In India, The Uttarakhand High Court banned battery cages and the Central government is enforcing the ruling by giving the farmers 6 months to remove their battery cages. This is the first ever court order in favor of these animals. HSI successfully persuaded the majority of Indian States to declare that the use of battery cages violates the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act of 1960. Further, pet shops in India will now be regulated and will need to ensure the well-being of all animals under their care. This was the joint efforts of People For Animals (PFA) & HSI. HSI India played a key role in drafting these rules. HSI also worked with the government of India to create proposed draft rules to ban the use of all animals in circuses. The government is now accepting public comments on this draft ruling. In Canada, the province of Alberta banned spear hunting after a controversial trophy bear hunting video went viral, sparking global outrage. HSI/Canada and the HSUS were at the forefront of efforts to shine a global spotlight on the issue and create pressure on the Alberta government to act. The California Senate passed the Iconic African Species Protection Act, which would prohibit possession of any part, product, offspring, or the dead body or parts thereof, including, but not limited to, the African elephant or the black rhinoceros. HSI lobbied for this bill.

Form 990, Part I, Line 1 BRIEF MISSION	actions to end the commercial killing of seals for fur, to end commercial whaling, to end shark finning, to end trophy hunting and to promote humane approaches to resolving human-wildlife conflict issues.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4d Description of other program services	(Expenses $ 2,029,006 including grants of $ 250,730)(Revenue $ 0) ANIMAL TESTING The Brazilian state of Rio de Janeiro became the first jurisdiction in the Americas to ban cosmetic animal testing and sales. Minas Gerais became the 7th Brazilian state to ban animal testing for cosmetics. HSI also intervened in a legal challenge by the Brazilian cosmetics industry association regarding the constitutionality of two of the state bills HSI has helped to secure. A Federal bill to ban cosmetic animal testing advanced politically in Australia, Brazil and Canada. Similar legislation is being considered in Chile, South Africa and the United States. The world's second largest beauty brand has formally joined HSI's global campaign to end cosmetic animal testing. Further, HSI negotiated with the South Korean government to enact a significant revision to its chemical law. This change requires the prioritization of animal testing alternatives and establishes a 'last resort' principle for new animal testing. Driven by HSI, Japan and Korea have officially removed the year-long pesticide poisoning test in beagle dogs and HSI organized and/or supported 7 non-animal testing themed conferences, events and trainings in 2018: Canada, China, Europe, India, Japan, Korea, and the US. HSI contributed animal protective language to Brazilian chemicals legislation. HSI is also the only animal NGO represented on the governments' new chemicals stakeholder committee: 2 reports from two workshops held in Brazil and the United States were published in the science journal Drug Discovery Today. HSI-funded critical reviews of human disease research that was published by experts in liver, Parkinson's, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. And HSI's work with the India Council of Medical Research prompted a commitment to establish an ICMR Centre for Excellence in Human Pathway-Based Biomedicine and Risk Assessment.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4d Description of other program services	(Expenses $ 812,994 including grants of $ 73,229)(Revenue $ 0) CONFRONTING CRUELTY Costa Rica rescued 315 dogs from extreme cruelty cases (including hoarding, dogs used for wildlife hunting, abandonment, and dog fighting). HSI led this collaboration with the National Animal Health Department. In India, The Uttarakhand High Court banned battery cages and the Central government is enforcing the ruling by giving the farmers 6 months to remove their battery cages. This is the first ever court order in favor of these animals. HSI successfully persuaded the majority of Indian States to declare that the use of battery cages violates the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act of 1960. Further, pet shops in India will now be regulated and will need to ensure the well-being of all animals under their care. This was the joint efforts of People For Animals (PFA) & HSI. HSI India played a key role in drafting these rules. HSI also worked with the government of India to create proposed draft rules to ban the use of all animals in circuses. The government is now accepting public comments on this draft ruling. In Canada, the province of Alberta banned spear hunting after a controversial trophy bear hunting video went viral, sparking global outrage. HSI/Canada and the HSUS were at the forefront of efforts to shine a global spotlight on the issue and create pressure on the Alberta government to act. The California Senate passed the Iconic African Species Protection Act, which would prohibit possession of any part, product, offspring, or the dead body or parts thereof, including, but not limited to, the African elephant or the black rhinoceros. HSI lobbied for this bill.

GENERAL NOTE JOINT COST ALLOCATIONS	For many years, Humane Society International (HSI) has relied on direct mail, email, telephone and other means of solicitation to recruit, expand and maintain its membership. Direct marketing and other donor channels allow the HSI to share specific details about recent accomplishments and to provide information about current campaigns and priorities to millions of supporters. HSI also uses postal mail -- and other channels -- to educate and to call the public to action to advance its mission and lifesaving work for animals. This is why, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) guidelines, HSI allocates a portion of its direct mail, email, phone and other communication costs to program services and to fundraising. Such costs are allocated to each major program, including - 1) Companion Animals - HSI's spay/neuter clinics in Latin America, India, Bhutan, the Philippines, Bangladesh, and Nepal have resulted in the sterilization and vaccination of many thousands of dogs and cats. HSI has permanently closed several dog meat farms in South Korea and has rescued and rehomed dogs from these farms. HSI responds to disasters around the world by providing rescue efforts, medical equipment/supplies and food. 2) Wildlife - HSI wildlife programs cover a wide range of issues from campaigning against the commercial killing of wildlife (Canadian seals, sharks, turtles, whales, rhinos, elephants, trophy hunted species) to ending trade in wildlife and wildlife parts to resolving human-wildlife conflict in a humane manner (e.g. elephants in southern Africa, badgers and rodents in the UK). 3) Farm Animals - HSI has obtained commitments from several companies (including hotel chains, hospitality companies and food companies) in multiple countries to source their egg inventories from 100% cage-free egg producers. 4) Confronting Cruelty - HSI works to confront cruelty on multiple fronts. Examples include - HSI/Canada was heavily involved in getting the government of British Columbia (BC) to prohibit all trophy hunting of grizzlies throughout BC. HSI/Mexico was involving in getting legislation passed to ban dogfighting throughout Mexico. India banned the import of reptile skins and fur in a landmark decision that will spare the lives of tens of thousands of animals from the cruel exotic leather industries. 5) Animal Testing - HSI works to end animal testing for medicinal and cosmetic products.
