THE ALF DESTROYS 12 HUNTING TOWERS.

14th August, Germany.

received anonymously via email:

“One Night, One Activist, and 12 Hunting Stands

On the night of August 14–15, 2025, I set out to ruin the hunters’ plans and to protect individuals from a cruel death at the hands of humans.

Seven hunting stands had been planned, which I had to leave standing on my last outing when I heard gunshots in the night.

To my frustration, I had to realize on the way that the hunting aids I had previously destroyed had been restored.

Hunters justify their killings with species and environmental protection. Yet they cause these very problems themselves by feeding wildlife in the winter, so that the animals do not migrate to other areas—if that is even possible.

This creates overpopulation, since there is enough food even in winter. The size of the herds increases the risk of disease, which is then combated with medication in the feed, resulting in weak and sick animals not dying naturally. These large herds then harm the forest, and in this way the hunters have created their own justification for killing.

To break this cycle, their tools—such as feeding racks, hunting stands, decoys, etc.—must be repeatedly destroyed so that they suffer significant financial losses and can no longer afford these schemes.

Such actions can and must also take place alone, regardless of the weather or whether friendly company is present.

As long as human animals kill non-human animals, we must fight for them and break all chains, open cages, destroy laboratories, and topple hunting stands.

With love,

ALF”

PRESS OFFICER FOR NAALPO JOSEPH BUDDENBERG RELIVES LIBERATION AT CONRAD MINK FARM 12 YEARS AGO.

via NAALPO:

“This is one of the many sheds at the Conrad Mink Farm in Keota, Iowa.

Twelve years ago today, I parked my car in a nearby cornfield and then liberated over 500 mink from Conrad.

I’ve been on nearly a hundred fur farms. All are abhorrent, every single one a desecration of nature.

This is still the most haunting fur farm I’ve ever seen. To this day, I have nightmares about this place. I saw mink crammed four to a cage. Wild animals stacked on top of each other, trying desperately to escape.

After opening hundreds of cages and watching nearly 550 mink escape the property to begin new lives, it was time to leave for another fur farm.

I jogged back to my vehicle. A mink followed me. She was mutilated and I knew she wasn’t going to make it. She stood at my feet and stared up at me. This was the moment I realized I was going to prison. I made a promise to her that I would do everything I possibly could to destroy the fur industry. I would not stop raiding fur farms until I was captured and caged myself.

This farm haunted me so much that I returned a few weeks later intending to open every cage and hopefully shut them down. I set off the newly-installed motion alarms and I was forced to flee.

As the fur industry approaches collapse, I have never regretted or rescinded my promise. And with tens of thousands of animals liberated from fur farms in the years since, many more are making the same promise I did. Fur farmers will never experience another peaceful killing season again.”

THE ANIMAL LIBERATION EXHIBITION 2025 – OPEN CALL.

The DoggybagCrew shelter is excited to announce the 2nd edition of the diy Animal Liberation Exhibition 2025 & to invite antispeciesist creators of all kinds or collectives to take part in a 2-day event in Athens, Greece, happening at the end of October (exact dates to be announced).

Our 1st edition  in November 2024,  was a 3-day antispeciesist event that took place at the Migrants Social Center in Exarchia that brought together creators from around the world to take a stand for animal liberation & solidarity.

This year’s event will once again bring together voices of creative resistance from across the globe, uniting through art to confront oppression, ignite dialogue and imagine a world where all beings live free from violence and exploitation.

Through art, we aim to raise awareness of the intertwined systems of oppression that exploit & brutalize both human and non-human animals. From factory farms & slaughterhouses to borders, prisons & warzones, our struggle is against all institutions that commodify life, destroy freedom & silence dissent. We envision a world beyond cages, chains & confinement. A world of total liberation, where speciesism, capitalism, colonialism & patriarchy are dismantled through solidarity & radical action.

We are looking for: Visual Art (painting, photography, illustration, sculpture, collage etc), Zines & Books, Video & Film, Music, Tattoo Art that explore direct action, resistance, veganism, animal liberation, personal narratives or stories of activism, works that motivate, provoke & inspire.

 The exhibition will support

The construction of the shelter

NATIONAL DEMO AGAINST IMPEX, UK – REPORTBACK.

received anonymously via email:

“On August 3rd, over 60 activists from across the UK came together in the small town of Islip. The plan was to hold a protest march, ending outside the home of Impex director Russell Morgan. Impex transports animals to laboratories across the UK and is an integral part of the industry. Despite the march and the route being well publicised, the police decided to ban it before it even began with an illegal section 14 notice, claiming no one had informed them. The unlawful warnings were ignored, and the march continued as planned, filling the streets with noise, placards, and effigies of Morgan. Around half of the protesters continued up to his gate, where flowers were laid in memory of the animals he has driven to their violent deaths.

The police continued to throw their toys out of their pram, and called for reinforcements, who shoved the peaceful protest back down the road to a busy intersection, where it stayed for about 40 minutes. Everyone in Islip knew we were there and why, with everyone telling us how much they hate Morgan. Unable to resist, the man himself decided to drive past the protest, but was spotted and his car was chased down the road. He didn’t come back. Angry at their loss of power, police picked a female protester, seemingly at random, assaulted her and then arrested her. If they wanted to act out, then so would we.

Police insisted the protest move, so it did, with most attendees heading to the gates of LabCorp, one of Europe’s most extensive animal testing facilities (made infamous by the SHAC campaign some years ago). The staff were not expecting us, and a line of cars built up behind the rapidly locked gates. After queuing and trying to find another exit, the staff decided to crawl into an empty building to wait it out. As more and more police showed up, they eventually chose to drive out, where they were met with a passionate protest. Police threw protestors across the road, but the protest lines held and pushed back. Finally, one car after another managed to squeeze through and accelerate down the road as fast as they could.

As more staff attempted to leave, the cops did our job for us and formed a line, refusing to let protestors cross, but in doing so, put the entire site on lockdown. We couldn’t have done it better ourselves. After giving the staff enough time to stew, we moved on to our final protest of the day: MBR Acres, the notorious puppy factory farm that breeds 2,000 dogs a year for research.

Our timing couldn’t have been better; we arrived as the person who bleeds dogs to death to harvest their blood and organs (yes, you read that right), was just trying to go home. Not on our watch. The police once again put the site on lockdown, and as the gates opened, they once more began throwing people around. It took some time, but the car eventually managed to get through, but not without seeing the passion of a movement that is closing this hellhole down. As vehicles arrived to collect the security, chaos erupted once more, and again when they tried to leave. As the final security guard eventually managed to head home, nearly an hour late, police threw a protester onto the ground in front of his car. Only thanks to the crowd swarming the vehicle was a serious injury avoided. Several other women were also thrown to the ground as the police tried to hold on to what little control they had.

Despite their violence, despite their unlawful orders and made-up laws, the day was ours. Our movement is back, and we’re here till we win. MBR has no toilets, no heating, and no offices. We will close this place for good, brick by brick, supplier by supplier.”

FOXES LIBERATED FROM A FUR FARM IN ILLINOIS.

via NAALPO:

26th August, Illinois USA.

Received anonymously:

Carrie Litig had previously been visited by the ALF in 2005. Apparently he did not get the message about what happens to those who stay in this barbaric business, so last night we decided to remind him. We saw by his motion lights, cameras and electric fence that he had at least learned to be paranoid, but not paranoid enough. With a little recon, we were able to circumvent these defenses and make our way to the cages.

It is sickening to see such majestic wild animals reduced to a short life in a tiny cage, awaiting a certain and brutal death just to satisfy human greed. We would make sure that that greed would have a price. We ripped open the first cage, then the second and soon we could not stop, even as the brightening sky threatened to reveal us.

Many of the foxes were too scared to leave their cage, but periodically we would look back and notice one after the other had made its way to the ground and was searching for their way out. With the darkness all but gone, we reluctantly made our way to the damaged fence, but not before pocketing a couple dozen of the cards on the cages holding valuable genetic information.

We are far from satisfied with this action; we had to leave many animals behind, but we will be back. We are sure that Kerry Litig will have even more security measures in place next time, that is if he can afford them. He might spare himself some time and money if he read up on the history of the Animal Liberation Front and realized that security systems do not intimidate us. We will find a way in, we always do.

To all the vegans reading this: it’s your turn now! Pelting season is just 3 months away. How many foxes and mink will die in November and how many will live out their natural lives, is all up to you!

No excuses, you know what to do!

WHY WE’VE BEEN GONE.

So yeah, we’ve been away from the internet and not updating the platform. We know folks rely on the platform to keep going all the time to send anonymous reports or to get news about prisoners or to get legal support in terms of money and whatnot, but the reality of it is, we can’t keep up continuosly with an extremely thin team of people.

Couple of years back we called for support because we couldn’t create and publish all the content we would like to, we were burning out and we were considering shutting down. The job is intense, the repression is constant, and every single person here is a volunteer. We did get an influx of new voices which was extremely welcome, but slow and steady folks have disappeared due to other constraints or needs or capabilities, so the collective is once again wearing thin, burning out and exhausted.

Basically, we need people to show up. UA has always been a collective effort, so if you want the collective to keep existing reach out over email and become part of the collective. it might mean writing an article a month, or one a week, or keeping an eye on prisoner news, or some other content we have not thought of but would fit with the project. It’s up to you.

Please understand this as exactly what it is: UA is a media collective, we are not a direct action group. Don’t contact us to “go on missions”. We don’t “go on missions”. We receive anonymous reports, we keep an eye on prisoner support needs, try to keep tabs with campaigns and write about security culture or about tactics and strategies to further the movement for liberation. We do not and cannot and will not be able to pout you in touch with underground activist groups.

So if you have time and capabilities and will and desire for UA to keep going, hit us up. Otherwise, UA as a platform will appear as and when we can, if we can, until we are done with it!

Thanks to all who support us continuously, you’re fucking grand.

Unoffensive Animal Collective.

PS: Bristol animal lib activists who hate pest controllers: if you’re reading this, your media is corrupted, we can’t see your photos, please re-send!

They will know care, respect and safety. We dedicate this action to comrade Alonso Verdejo, we never met you but through your actions we remember you. May historical memory bury those who condemn taking the offensive!”
