“For politicians, the justice system and those who profit from animal life, there is a difference between an animal being killed in a slaughterhouse to sell its body and generate capital, or starving to death on farms — this represents a loss of invested capital. For us, every individual life has value, so we only have one chance, and we won’t waste it waiting for the justice system to decide. Nor shall we waste her begging for mercy and for her murderers to give us a life. And there we are, in broad daylight, in full view of some curious onlookers, cutting through the plastic to give them freedom, the freedom they have been denied since the moment they were born.
We only care about each other so they can be free, because they only have us by their side to break the cage.”
SPANISH (original):
“Para lxs políticxs, la justicia y quienes comercializan con la vida de lxs animales hay diferencias entre que un animal sea asesinadx dentro de un matadero para vender su cuerpo y generar el capital o que mueran por inanición en las granjas, eso es pérdida del capital invertido.
Para nosotrxs la vida de cada individuo vale, así que tenemos una sola oportunidad y no la vamos a perder esperando que la justicia decida.
Tampoco la vamos a desaprovechar pidiendo clemencia y que sus asesinos nos entreguen una vida.
Y ahí estamos a plena luz del día a la vista de algunxs curiosxs cortando el plástico para darles libertad, esa que se les nego apenas nacieron. Solo nos cuidamos entre nosotrxs para que ellxs sean libres, porque solo nos tienen a nosotrxs de su lado para romper la jaula”
“We believe that the structures of speciesism are vulnerable and accessible.
Last week, we – an anonymous group – went to a factory farm in France and helped 100 hens escape from it. A few hours later, the liberated hens were already running on the grass and petting each other.
Rage consumed us when we arrived at the barn. The sky was dark, and everything was silent except for their screams and talks inside.
We entered and took them out, as fast as we could. After that, the night didn’t have the same color. We could hear them talk in their transport cages but we knew that they were free from harm, at last.
And, of course, we still deeply think of the ones who are still inside. We will continue to fight so that, one day, everyone could be free and safe.
If you can, please go inside those places of oppression, open the cages and take them out. You will experience more rage, fear and hope that what you are probably used to but every second of it will be so worth it. Because when you go on with your daily life later, you will know that the people you helped escape are now free and safe.
Thank you to everyone who fight alongside other animals and good luck with your actions.”
“On a hot summer morning at a Utah cage free farm, after some surveillance, we were able to identify entrances into the massive death prisons, but quickly realized numerous humans were nearby and entering our building of choice. We pivoted and moved to the furthest shed away and quickly entered. Upon entering, we found hundreds of chickens crammed together, some of them dead stuck underneath metal beams.
When grabbing these chickens, we expected to be met with fear and resistance. Instead we met 2 gentle birds who had seemingly given up on their lives, knowing nothing but suffering and pain. We like to imagine they both willingly got into my arms, knowing we were there to help bring them into a better world, but we think its far more likely that they felt they had nothing to struggle or fight for. They were docile and quiet towards us while being transported despite knowing nothing from humans but cruelty.
We say to those watching and listening, are you not horrified when you see the countless images of animal cruelty? Does your heart, when faced with the images of their torment, not also feel total repulsion and an obligation to act? Now is the time. All you need is an address, a vehicle, and the will to act. Right now there is an animal – whether that be a cow, pig, chicken, mink etc. that could be spared of these human evils and live lives of freedom and safety. They are counting on simple every day people like you and me to go outside of our comfort zones and to save their lives. We are not heroes. If it takes a hero to simply do the right thing when it is needed, then what is a hero? Our animal brothers and sisters needed us yesterday. Hear their cries, see their anguish, and let it guide you to their freedom. Do not let fear of capture guide your heart. Now is the time to liberate in whatever way you can. Now is the time.”

“The Animal Liberation Front claims responsibility for the liberation of nine mice from the University of New Orleans earlier this month.
On September 19, 2026, nine female mice (including four so-called “breeding females”) were loaded up and spirited away from a miserable, windowless cinderblock room on the 2nd floor of UNO’s Psychology Building to begin a new life in safety and comfort. All nine are being lovingly looked after and tended to. None were released into the wild.
The lab chosen was that of Christopher Harshaw, who subjects mice and rats to experiments that purportedly aim to study autism, body temperature regulation and social behavior. This includes injecting them with drugs (including acetaminophen to induce neurodevelopment disorders), shutting them into small lighted cabinets overnight, and putting poisonous chemicals into their water like aniline (known to cause blood disorders and spleen tumors in rodents).
Moreover, Christopher Harshaw and his research assistant Anna are personally responsible for the killing of hundreds of animals per year, sometimes as many as 30-50 in a single day, as noted in Harshaw’s “Euthanasia Log” notebook, which on a previous visit was removed, had its pages photocopied (along with other documents related to animal research) and then put back. His death tally: 323 in 2023 (rats and mice), 575 in 2024 (rats and mice, including one wild mouse caught in a live trap and killed on the premises), and 363 in 2025 (all mice). His method: gassing them to death with co2.
Extensive video was also taken documenting the decrepit conditions of the lab as well as Roberto Refinetti’s animal room full of cages formerly housing squirrels (empty at the time of filming).
As should be clear: the purpose of this action wasn’t to vandalize, nor was it mere opportunism. This was a carefully planned and orchestrated live liberation of mice from Chris Harshaw’s lab. Its only purpose was getting the animals to safety as quickly as possible, therefore no equipment was damaged and no messages left at the scene. The whole operation, from entering the building to exiting with the animals, took ten minutes.
It should also be noted: This action was carried out using a minimum number of tools (none) and a minimum number of personnel (one).
This proves not only that lab raids can still be completed in 2026 but that one person, working alone, can successfully accomplish them.
To Chris Harshaw: Accessing your lab was child’s play, and with the hammer and drill on site it would have been only too easy to decommission every piece of equipment you own. Consider this a warning. In the end you were shown more mercy than the animals you hold captive.
And a word to all you would-be liberators out there: These facilities are not the fortresses you think they are. They are not impregnable. In fact the animal abusers in white coats have become so secure in their belief that no one is watching that they sometimes don’t even bother locking their doors! Use this negligence to your advantage. And while they sleep, go and do your work.
According to Camp Beagle, people accessed MBR Acres on the 29th of September and liberated multiple dogs. At least three dogs were rescued, but there is potential of more dogs being liberated. One person stayed back after the raid and was arrested by the police.
This event is ongoing, and we will update with more details when they become available.
“While walking through the Welsh countryside, we came across a couple of dead sheep before finding a young lamb who was unable to stand. They were severely malnourished and covered in ticks, clearly in desperate need of help.
We removed the ticks, carefully picked up the lamb and took them to a sanctuary where they could receive the care and protection they desperately needed.
Animal farmers are no different to human slave owners. Vegans need to keep exposing them for what they really are. Get active.”
There’s been some huge wins for the grassroots animal rights space in August.
Right at the start of the month, Southampton Animal Action convinced Brittany Ferries to end the live export of farmed animals from Ireland to France.
They protested and disrupted ports, offices, and shareholders across the South Coast and London for a year. Concerned the protests might escalate to demonstrations at sea, Brittany Ferries’ CEO gave them his personal WhatsApp number, arranged a series of meetings, and agreed to end the vile trade! The win has sent the Irish farming sector into crisis mode, and they are warning that if a replacement isn’t found soon. All eyes are now on Irish Ferries, the only remaining live exporter for the Irish farming industry. This is an incredible opportunity for our grassroots movement to strike a powerful blow against the dairy industry.
More incredible news from Scotland as grassroots activists and national organisation Protect the Wild have just saved 4,000 lives!
Following a sustained campaign against the Guga Hunt, which sees ten men from the Scottish island of Lewis bludgeon baby gannets to death for a local delicacy, the hunt’s licence has been revoked! In support of the Protect the Wild campaign, grassroots activists smashed windows, painted buildings, and occupied rooftops. The licence will not be issued for 2026, and the licensing body, NatureScot, has indicated this will continue through 2027. Gannets are an endangered species, and the licence is allowed only because of a deliberate loophole in the law. Campaigners are now pushing to close this loophole and make the hunt permanently illegal.
MBR Acres, the notorious puppy factory that breeds dogs for research, continues to sink into shit. Quite literally, it turns out, as their waste management company pulled out, leaving them stacking tonnes of dog poo in rubble sacks behind their buildings. The MBR Suppliers campaign (www.mbrsuppliers.is or MBR Suppliers on FB) is impressively deconstructing the company, leaving them with no working toilets (for the last year!), no gardeners (their security have to trim the hedges to allow lorries in), at risk of being delisted from Companies House, and their £250,000 office building remains unfinished because no one wants to build it.
The National Animal Rights March saw thousands of people marching for animal freedom in London. This is the fifth month in a row that activists have taken to the UK streets en masse for the animals! The Animal Freedom Network has announced that 25 local animal rights communities have formed as part of their efforts to help support and grow the grassroots space. An exciting initiative that is already seeing great results! Their national gathering is on September 25-27 – more info at www.animalfreedom.org.uk.
“On 1st September we took a visit to a known shooter’s land and wrecked his very large pheasant enclosure. There were numerous pheasants inside which would have undoubtedly be shot when the inbreds all met up for their blood thirsty session. It will take him time (and money) to build the enclosure again, by which time hopefully many of the pheasants will have left the area. A deer shooting tower was seen nearby and also dealt with.
A week prior to this we were alerted to a fox trap in a field behind another murderers house. When locating this we also came across a second trap in an adjacent field. Both traps were set and one had the carcus of a squirrel inside. Both traps were destroyed and taken away from the area.
We will be back to check on both locations regularly to ensure any further equipment is appropriately dealt with.”
According to local press, anonymous folk released 1500 captive mink from Cascade Fur Farm at 7582 Hunsaker Road SE in Turner, Oregon on the night of the 13th of August.
“Another hit from the newly formed ‘South West Animal Defence’.
This slaughterhouse was targeted for its on going killing of the most defenceless individuals on the planet, mainly sheep and cows.
They also kill unwanted male calfs from the dairy industry here, who are just weeks old. They were also exposed in 2019 shooting horses in the face in front of their friends. Horses who were in a losing streak, or simply unwanted individuals. And if you don’t have a vegan mindset yet then you give these evil scum your money.
Four vehicles were targeted with all windscreens damaged and the truth spray painted on the sides.”
