What a month it’s been. During the month of December we received a total of 17 direct action reports. For the first time this year, most reports were liberations of animals in places of abuse, which changed the tone from a year heavy on sabotage.
By country, the number of reported actions were as follows:
UK: 9
France: 3
Argentina: 2
Italy: 1
Sweden: 1
Ireland: 1
After a Scottish report of a chicken liberation called for autonomous groups to join the ’12 days of Christmas’ call to action, many reports referring to it were received. In France, 24 turkeys were liberated. The UK then released a report about 3 Cornish cross chickens, another report about a reindeer market’s advertisements being ripped down and a third report claiming that Christmas elves had liberated six ducks. France reported another 7 turkeys liberated, some UK anarchists reported on another six turkeys finding freedom, 32 rodent were taken from a pet mill in UK, where a mistreated kitten was also liberated. A video about another 3 turkeys from the UK was released, and then a report telling us about a continuous campaign to shut down a deer farm and shoot in Britain. Italy reported on five decoy bird cages destroyed as a Christmas present to the hunters. Seems that the 12 days of Christmas turned into the 12 days of crime!
On the prisoner support side we reminded folks that writing to prisoners during the holidays is extremely necessary (but lets be frank, you should write to prisoners always), we shut down the preorders for the Cara and Celeste’s tee fundraiser (we are shipping them very soon!!!) and we were delighted to read Dimitria’s words after being acquitted of the violent charges against a hunter.
As always, we will be here to report on all news about direct action in the animal liberation movement. If you can afford it, please donate a few coins to us or even join our patreon if you want to do a monthly donation! We don’t keep any money ourselves, all the funds raised go towards the project and towards prisoner support needs.
