What did Cleveland Amory do for animals?

Answer 1

Cleveland Amory founded The Fund for Animals in 1967 and served without compensation as its president until his death in 1998. In 1974, he wrote Man Kind? Our Incredible War on Wildlife, which inspired the anti-hunting movement in the United States and sparked a CBS documentary on hunting, The Guns of Autumn.

Amory rescued a cat from the Manhattan streets on Christmas Eve 1977, and named him Polar Bear. His three books about Polar Bear -- The Cat Who Came for Christmas, The Cat and the Curmudgeon, and The Best Cat Ever -- all became best-sellers. They are now available as The Compleat Cat, which contains all three in one volume. His last book, Ranch of Dreams, tells the story of The Fund for Animals' Black Beauty Ranch, a sanctuary for hundreds of abused and abandoned animals.
