Who Are We?

ARK Online is an independent publication staffed by a (small) group of people who care about animals and want to use the Web to broadcast information about animal welfare to a wide array of readers. We believe in the democratic potential of the Web and so chose to be an exclusively electronic format.

We are not presently affiliated with any organization--humane, commercial, or otherwise. We are, however, looking for sponsorship. Click here to learn more.

We are lucky enough to have a wonderful group of contributors from all walks of life. We also want to say a Special Thanks to all the friends and supporters who made ARK possible.

We welcome the participation of our readers! Drop us a line with any feedback or suggestions about stories you'd like us to cover. Since we are in the Portland Oregon area, most of our stories reflect that. We would be happy to include stories and cover issues in other parts of the world. Do you have a pressing issue in your area that needs to be reported? Know of a great organization in your area? Found a great online place for animal lovers? Is your vet known for rescuing strays? Write an article and send it to us! E-mail webmaster@arkonline.com
