Every St in the USA
there are 32 humane societies in Canada
In some states yes they do.
The Humane Society is not a single organization, there are several Humane Societies within the United States, most of them named for the area they are established in. For example, the Kentucky Humane Society adopted out 6,091 dogs in 2012.
Animal cops are also known as humane officers, and typically work on behalf of Humane Societies. The job outlook for humane officers is not very good, since the counties in most states tend to exclusively use the services of animal control officers.
They answer to themself. Most humane societies are privately run facilities, in that they make their own rules and don't answer to the county. Some of them, however may be county run and are supported by county tax dollars. It all depends on where you live as to how the 'humane society' reports. Plus, 'humane society' is a generic or specific term. Do you mean the Humane Society of the United States, your local humane society or animal contol?

Humane Society of the United States was created in 1954.
My answering this question just proves that you learn something new every day. I was expecting to look this up and find the Humane Society of the United States, but I came across this instead.The following is directly from the website of the American Humane Association.= = = Who We Are =Founded in 1877, the American Humane Association is the only national organization dedicated to protecting both children and animals. A nonprofit membership organization, American Humane is headquartered in Denver. Through a network of child and animal protection agencies and individuals, American Humane provides national leadership in developing policies, legislation, curricula and training programs -- and taking actions -- to protect children and animals from cruelty, abuse, neglect and exploitation. Hundreds of child welfare and child protective services agencies and professionals are members of American Humane. In addition, hundreds of local humane societies, SPCAs and animal control agencies across the country are member organizations of American Humane. As members, those individuals and organizations benefit from the national leadership, expertise, resources, information exchange, trainings and programs that American Humane provides. American Humane also raises awareness about The Link® between animal abuse and other forms of violence, as well as the benefits derived from the human-animal bond. Our regional office in Los Angeles is the authority behind the No Animals Were Harmed® end credit disclaimer on film and TV productions, and our office in Washington advocates for child and animal protection at the federal and state levels.
The humane society is good to have because they offer a chance for homeless animals to be adopted into a loving family. People should adopt from humane societies because when you adopt, you save a life.
No there is always a fee. At humane societies there are prices of cats around $150.
They might, although honestly most humane societies don't have the time or resources to check up on the animals that have already been adopted out. However, you should still have your adopted pet spayed or neutered - it helps keep the number of pets the humane society has in its cages down.
