HSUS is an animal welfare organization and like most animal welfare organization they care more about domestic animals like cats and dogs though they sometimes do work to help the living conditions of livestock animals but even though they sometimes help improve living conditions they aren’t against them being killed still

PETA is an animal rights organization the most well known AR organization probably. They think all animals (including domestic, livestock, and wild animals) should have their own basic rights like life. Then end goal of most animal rights organizations are actually pretty close to animal liberation.

ALF isn’t an organization in the same sense that the other two are. This is because what they do is illegal. They are basically a name and set of guidelines or rules that if anyone follows properly they can use the name too. They are for animal liberation. Which is basically a more extreme approach then animal rights at freeing all types of animals. Since ALF supporters are extremists they normally just feel like animal rights and animal welfare supporters aren’t doing enough. Just like a lot of vegans don’t like vegetarians or omnivores for not doing enough.

The ASPCA is like the HSUS as they are for animal welfare. Most animal welfare supporters care more about dogs and cats or just the living situation of livestock animals. I think animal welfare attracts a larger group of animals because they don’t have to adapt the way they live really but they still love animals etc. The reason they say fur is wrong but leather is fine is because wearing fur has become out dated and people are fine with saying it is wrong not to mention the animals used for fur are small cute fluffy animals that most people like. Where as wearing leather hasn’t become as out dated yet and cows and those types of animals aren’t cared for as much by the general public. So basically they are just playing on societies favorites and not trying to scare away any people from their organization.
