WINDOWS OF A BIG FUR SHOP COVERED IN BLOOD.
PIGLET RESCUED FROM EXPLOITATION.
January, Denmark.
Received anonymously via email:
“On a stormy night in January this little boy was liberated from an intensive pig breeding farm in Denmark.
Denmark prides itself on high animal welfare but it is clear in all of these farms that all they care about is money. This little baby was liberated from a life time of exploitation, but our fight for his thousands of brothers and sisters that die everyday continues.”
LITTLE OAKHURST IS VISITED AGAIN, TWO LAMBS ARE AIDED AWAY FROM DANGER.
5th February, Kent UK.
received anonymously over email:
“We’d heard of the horror farm in Kent owned and run by Tracy Middleton and the campaign folks are running. We saw the photos they had taken of dead bodies in piles next to young lambs and other sheep still clinging on to life.
So as we were in the area we went to Little Oakhurst Brissenden Farm to see for ourselves. We saw the starving sheep, their bones visible even through their wool. We saw the awful conditions and the sickness. Don’t get us wrong we fucking hate every farm and there’s no nice exploitation but this was something else. This is what happens when a lazy psychopath get their hands on animals. We aided those we could grab away from this hell hole and to somewhere safe where they won’t be neglected or sent to slaughter. Even with multiple cop cars showing up we still managed to evade them and make our joint escape. It tore us apart to leave so many comrades behind, knowing that only more suffering lay ahead for them.
We hear there’s a protest at Tracy’s on the 9th, we won’t be able to make it so we hope you will. People should be fucking raging!
We dedicate this action to the memory of Jill Phipps who lived and died fighting for animal liberation.
The fight continues.”

SIX DUCKS RESCUED FROM A FARM.
18th January, Czech Republic.
‘I stop the car in the forest on the side of the road. Several people get out with the necessary equipment and get lost among the trees. Me and Petra are going to park the car. Later we meet with others near the object. When the patrols are on their spots we go to the large metal door. The silence and stink is everywhere.
In a little while we are inside. Every time it looks the same. Life in liquidation proceedings.
Lukas and Petra prepare the bags and I collect animals. They don’t even run away. We take some pictures. No art, just documentation. After that we are ready to leave with six ducks for whom kind people prepared a wonderful new home.
In Memory of Bill “Avalon” Rodgers
Bill Rodgers was found dead on December 21, 2005 in his cell. According to police, he committed suicide using a plastic bag. He choked himself.
Together with six other activists he was arrested on December 7, 2005 as part of Operation Backfire (FBI).
Before he suffocated, he wrote, “I didn’t leave. I just changed form. With or without me, resistance is getting stronger every day.” ‘
IT HAD TO HAPPEN AGAIN. LIBERATE OR DIE: FROM CAGE TO FREEDOM
20th to 25th May, Hambacher Forst, Germany.
Last year’s five day event was a blast. People shared and learnt, told the cops to fuck off and a bunch of dirty activists blockaded a slaughterhouse. What is going to happen this year? It is up to you to decide!
For any of you who might not know, Liberate Or Die: From Cage to Freedom is a five day event filled with workshops, skillsharing and actions. The event is free (including the food!) although donations are welcome. The event is hosted in Hambacher Forst as an attempt to bring together not just the animal liberation movement but also the anarchist, anti-capitalist and ecological struggle.
There are many, many “vegan festivals” to choose from and we would like to say that we’ve checked the calendar to ensure this one doesn’t clash with anything major, but to be honest we would be lying. Basically, if you are into taking action, if you want to learn about something else than outreach and if you want to share a space with like-minded people who don’t simply fall for the standard mainstream vegan, make it to this event.
We will be posting updates and more information about it all, but for now just have a look at the event either on Facebook or on our website. The text has been translated to eight or nine different languages too so that should make things easier.
See you in the next riot, or in Hambacher Forst.
Unoffensive Animal.

Also, please consider supporting us if you like the work we do. We really could do with more folks donating a dollar or two a month!

PIGLET RESCUED FROM A NON INTENSIVE FARM.
January, Kent UK.

“How to steal pigs and be a dickhead…..
Liberating animals without a forward plan is just stressful and reckless and puts so much strain on your community and mental health. Don’t be that dickhead.
Thankfully folks came through for this sweet girl who, despite being on a non intensive type pig exploitation facility was still tail banded and had a hoof injury. She is safe now and despite what she has been through trusts humans so much.”
HUNTING TOWER DESTROYED, HUNTER’S CAR SMASHED. ACTION DEDICATED TO MATTHIAS. (DELAYED REPORT).
October 2019, Tuscany, Italy.
received anonymously via email:
“On a full moon night, we took a walk in the woods; we destroyed a shooting hut. We wanted to continue but it was dawning. On the way back we didn’t miss a Jeep with a big sticker saying: “Boar hunting”: we managed to break a glass. To finish, we left a sign “MURDERERS” on the local hunters’ headquarters.
For the freedom of animals living in the woods, for the freedom of all animals.”
We dedicate this night to Matthias, who will have a trial in Switzerland on 6/11 for attacking animal killers.
Strength to Matthias! Strength to all the antispeciesist and anarchist prisoners! You hunters are in our sights!”
HUNTING TOWER AND FEEDERS DESTROYED.
19th January, Paris.
Via: biteback magazine
“This week, in the Paris region, a hunting tower and four scattering grains areas for hunting were destroyed by antispeciesist activists.
Hunters are setting up shelters and seed dispensers to attract their future victims and to accustom them to feeding and sheltering in these areas. They then hide in their hunting towers to make it easier to spot and shoot them. Hunting towers can be found on the edges of fields and woods, and the scattering grains areas are sometimes located directly in the fields. If you see bushes in the middle of a field, look for a seed dispenser hidden inside.
The battery powered sabre saw is very useful in some cases. Watch out for tracks, cameras and your face, and destroy anything they use for assassination. STOP SPECIESISM.”
French:
“Cette semaine, en région parisienne, une tour de chasse et quatre zones d’agrainage pour la chasse ont été détruites par des activistes antispécistes.
Les chasseuses et chasseurs installent des abris et des distributeurs de graines pour attirer leurs futures victimes, les habituer à se nourrir et s’abriter à ces endroits. Iels se cachent ensuite dans leurs tours de chasse pour les repérer et leur tirer dessus plus facilement. On trouve des tours de chasse en bordure de champs et de bois, et les zones d’agrainage se trouvent parfois directement dans les champs. Si vous voyez des buissons au milieu d’un champs, regardez si il y a pas un distributeur de graines caché dedans.
La scie sabre à batterie est bien utile dans certains cas. Faites attention aux traces, aux caméras et à votre visage, et détruisez tout ce qui leur sert à assassiner. STOP SPECISME.”
MULTIPLE HUNTING TOWERS DESTROYED
January, NRW (Germany)
received anonymously via email:
“Enjoying hiking in the beautiful areas Sauerland, Siegerland und Bergisches Land in North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW), Germany. Unfortunately tons of hunting towers destroy the nice view. Therefore but only for the liberation of all forest animals, these have to disappear.
It’s always good to carry your bushcraft tools with you.”
