Protect the Harvest is an American 501(c)(4) non-profit advocacy organization founded by Forrest Lucas which opposes "the radical animal rights movement" and particularly the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), which it calls "a wealthy and successful attack group".[1] It also collaborated to the production of two films that were generally panned by critics. The organization has an allied political action committee (PAC), the Protect the Harvest PAC, which funds campaigns to assist or defeat candidates for political office.[1]
