CAPS has carried out undercover investigations and researches the use of animals in entertainment. The organisation also conducts inspections of roadside zoos and wildlife parks and organises National Zoo Awareness Day. In 2004 it commissioned the largest and most in-depth investigation ever made into the public aquarium industry, revealing most animals to have been taken from the wild and disputing conservation claims by the industry.
Campaigning against the use of animals in circuses has remained the core focus, supporting protests against travelling circuses around the UK.

Famous quotes containing the word campaigns:
“That food has always been, and will continue to be, the basis for one of our greater snobbisms does not explain the fact that the attitude toward the food choice of others is becoming more and more heatedly exclusive until it may well turn into one of those forms of bigotry against which gallant little committees are constantly planning campaigns in the cause of justice and decency.”
—Cornelia Otis Skinner (1901–1979)
