The Captive Animals' Protection Society (CAPS) was founded in 1957. Founder Irene Heaton was appalled by the suffering of animals within the entertainment industry, and campaigned tirelessly on their behalf throughout the rest of her life.
Over the past 50 years, CAPS has helped individuals and organizations with their own projects, both in the UK and abroad, by supplying them with information, photographs, video footage and other forms of support, including financial assistance.
Our undercover investigators obtain hard evidence; we produce educational and campaign materials; we lobby politicians at all levels for legislation to end animal use in entertainment. We have also established an educational charity to particularly work with teachers and students.

CAPS is opposed to the use of animals in entertainment and works to end their use. Since 1957 our main object has been to end the use of all animals in circuses, a campaign which is still at the forefront of our work today.
Our other key areas of work are to end the captivity of animals in zoos and exotic pet trade as well as the use of captive wild animals in advertising and films.
CAPS seeks to prevent the use and exploitation of captive and performing animals, and investigates cases of alleged cruelty against captive and performing animals.

CAPS produces a number of leaflets and information packs. These are available for use by students, campaigners and other members of the public. We also produce a Council Information Pack which is used by councils and councilors considering a ban on circuses with performing animals from council owned land.
