22nd October, Iowa, USA.
“Although an anonymous communique has yet to be received by the Press Office, animal liberation activists have apparently freed 2000 captive mink last night from David Tremel Fur Farm (2017 Troy Trail Woodbine, IA 51579), according to Fur Commission USA and local news sources. This is the second fur farm raid in the last week, as pelting season begins soon, when hundreds of thousands of fur-bearing animals will be killed for their skins.
The fur profiteer has apparently made the ludicrous claim that half the animals were recaptured, as if these genetically wild animals were hanging around to return to the tiny, abysmal cages where they spend their entire short lives. All the animals were due to be executed and skinned for their fur within the next month.”
