USA FUR FARM SURVEY CONTINUES TO SHOW MANY CLOSURES.

via: NAALPO

In September ’24, anonymous activists visited over 20 fur farms in Idaho and Utah to compile footage and data on the dying fur trade, and to determine the operational status of the fur farms in both states.

What we uncovered is further evidence of the power of direct action and pressure campaigns. Farms that once held thousands of prisoners have been reclaimed by nature. We found abandoned properties, dilapidated sheds, and stacks of cages where generations of mink lived and died in.

All 24 sheds at the Ball Brothers Farm in Malad City, ID are removed. This massive farm is no longer.

The Moyle family is an Idaho fur dynasty. In 2013, the ALF emptied their farm in Burley, ID and freed the entire breeding stock. Today, Moyle’s farms are being disassembled.

Larry Carson owned 3 fur farms in Utah. 2 of those farms are now abandoned, with all sheds free of wildlife.

As pelt prices remain under $30, operational farms have been forced to scale back. Once massive farms now hold a fraction of the animals they once did.

But many prisoners still languish, awaiting death in the next 90 days

There is nothing more beautiful than the sight of an abandoned prison. And there is nothing more heinous than seeing living beings caged in filth, abused as commodities without reverence. We saw hundreds of foxes pacing in cages on the Hobbs Fur Farm in Franklin, ID. They gaze out at the natural world, yet can’t participate in it. Unless their cages are opened.

We watched as mink clawed at cages and attempted to escape from the hell imposed on them by the Beckstead family at Sunny B Farms in Preston, ID.

The families still involved in this industry – the Hobbs’, Beckstead’s, and Zimbal’s, are in it for keeps. They’ll squeeze every last penny from the torture and subjugation of native wildlife. Unless we stop them.

Over 20,000 mink and foxes have been liberated in Utah and Idaho since the beginning of the ALF campaign against this industry. The resurgence of the last 2 years – with over 25,000 mink and foxes liberated – promises more.

Visit a fur farm – look the animals in the eyes. You’ll know what to do. The mink and foxes suffering in cages and crying out for freedom have less than 60 days to live. Be their guardian angel.
