Animal Acres is a Los Angeles farmed animal sanctuary and compassionate learning center dedicated to rescuing and protecting farmed animals through rescue, education, and advocacy efforts. Animal Acres is located on a beautiful 26 acre hacienda ranch, just 45 minutes from Hollywood. We encourage people to visit, volunteer, and become involved in Animal Acres, to help create a more compassionate world for ALL.

Farm Sanctuary is in the process of transitioning the former Animal Acres’ membership programs into our membership structure. Supporters with current Animal Acres membership cards can still use their benefits during this transition period.

From Sacrifice to Sanctuary

This charming young kid came to us from the San Gabriel Valley Humane Society. Police officers had pulled over a car for speeding, and in the car was a bag with this little guy inside. The people were planning on using him for a ritual sacrifice. This is actually not currently illegal because farmed animals are considered property and are excluded from many anti-cruelty laws, and animal sacrifice is defended on religious freedom grounds. Luckily for this little guy and for us, the officers were able to seize him on a technicality and bring him to safety.

We have been calling him little Prince, but he is in need of a loving sponsor to help with his special food and medical needs. Please click here to sponsor “Prince”.
