Born Free USA raised awareness on the public health and safety, animal welfare, conservation, and biodiversity issues associated with keeping wild animals in captivity and worked to increase legislative support to further restrict the private keeping of exotic wildlife to reduce instances of human injury and death, zoonotic disease transfer, invasive species, and the loss of threatened wildlife. The organization released research on the exploitation of animals as classroom pets and the harm caused by holding great apes captive in zoos. Born Free USA also embarked on a long-term project of in-depth research into United States zoos, with a focus on animal welfare provision, conservation contribution, and educational value of captive animal facilities. The project will be rolled out over two years and will combine research and undercover investigation. The organization used social media, mainstream media, and educational outreach materials to advance its charitable purposes, with resources including scientific reports, infographics, and webinars. It maintains an interactive database of deadly and dangerous captive wild animal incidents to shed light on the magnitude of the issue of captive exotic animals, along with a database of trap-related injuries and deaths to make the public aware of the dangers of traps to wildlife, pets, and humans on public and private lands.
