Our Work
​

INVESTIGATING CASES OF
​ANIMAL CRUELTY
Our network of state humane agents works with law enforcement to investigate cases of animal abuse, neglect, and cruelty throughout the state of Minnesota.
TRAINING AND
​EDUCATION
​We provide training to our state humane agents and law enforcement throughout the state so that they are better equipped to fight animal cruelty and
​investigate animal abuse. 
PROTECTING ANIMALS
​IN MINNESOTA
Minnesota animal welfare laws have protections for all animals, not just our pets. We work on behalf of all animals in the state--farmed animals, wild animals, and companion animals. ​
