” ‘The Ginger Pig’ have many stores across the city. Last night, we made our way to their branch near Clapham Common. This area has recently had a lot of attention on it after the murder of Sarah Everard at the hands of a police officer. Naturally, they swore more would plague the streets. Last night, their presence was definitely felt, we were feeling stubborn though.

After a series of close encounters, our target windows were in sight. And so was a delivery truck. Doors wide open, proudly displaying the cruelty that compelled us to be there. The additional delay wasn’t ideal but this came as a heavy reminder of what we were there to do and why we were there to do it. No matter how many blue lights and sirens ripped through the sky, we weren’t going to be deterred. The slim possibility of being thrown into a van handcuffed felt very minimal in comparison to the animals’ certainty of being thrown into one bloody and dismembered.

Once the truck had fucked off and a comfortable amount of time had passed, we attacked. Cops protect property not people but turns out they couldn’t even do that.”

2nd May, Germany.

According to mainstream media reports, two Hunting towers were destroyed in Auringer Wald, Germany. A third one was found to have the ladder sneakily sawn in order to break when in use.

The hunters report that the sabotage has costed them about 4000 Euros and that because the hunting towers cannot be insured, they will have to cover all costs. The police reported they don’t have a clue about who the perpetrators could be.

“24th April was a day for mass trespass. Countryside Alliance goon Tim Bonner described the call-out as “blatant anarchism” and he wasn’t wrong. We did away with two ladder traps, a larsen trap, nine tully traps and a stink pit. Seven crows were released from the cages.

A red kite was recently reported shot and hung from a tree in Cockley Cley, Norfolk. This massive shooting estate is right next door. We’re certain that’s no coincidence.

This was for the red kite, the Kinder Scout trespassers, and everyone under attack by the new crime bill.”

“Neufmanil is a small village of 1085 inhabitants located in the Ardennes north of Charleville-Mézières. A few days ago, the hunters of the commune found two cut trees lying on their cabin. The trees were cut at the base so that they fell on the cabin.

The hunters were obviously very surprised by this discovery and believe that this act of vandalism is the work of professional loggers. The mayor of Neufmanil filed a complaint with the gendarmerie in Nouzonville. A few days before January 17, an anti-hunting tag was found on the gate of the Neufmanil soccer stadium. A new act of vandalism that shows how hunting has become the target of radical activists.”

“Neufmanil est un petit village de 1085 habitants situé dans les Ardennes au nord de Charleville-Mézières Il y a quelques jours, les chasseurs de la commune ont retrouvé deux épicés couchés sur leur cabane. Les arbres ont été tronçonnés à la base de façon à tomber sur la cabane.

Les chasseurs ont évidemment été très surpris par cette découverte et pensent que cet acte de vandalisme est l’œuvre de professionnels du bûcheronnage. Le maire de Neufmanil a déposé plainte à la gendarmerie de Nouzonville. Quelques jours avant le 17 janvier, un tag anti-chasseurs a été retrouvé sur le portail du stade de foot de Neufmanil. Un nouvel acte de vandalisme qui montre à quel point la chasse est devenue la cible d’activistes radicaux.”

“Yesterday morning, at about 9 o’clock, on chemin Blanc in Sérignan, the firemen were engaged to put out a fire on a hiking trail. A hunters’ hut was the prey of the flames. The shelter of about fifty square meters burned down completely.

The criminal nature of this fire was not ruled out by the gendarmes. Should it be seen as a revenge against the hunters? No one knows. In any case, this fire occurred while last Friday, a doe pursued by poachers to Orange was found near the Pôle emploi agency. Wounded, the animal did not survive despite its transport to a veterinarian.”

FR:

“Hier matin, vers 9 heures, chemin Blanc à Sérignan, les sapeurs-pompiers ont été engagés pour éteindre un incendie sur un sentier de randonnée. Une cabane de chasseurs était la proie des flammes. L’abri d’une cinquantaine de mètres carrés a entièrement brûlé.

La nature criminelle de cet incendie n’a pas été écartée par les gendarmes. Faut-il y voir une vengeance envers les chasseurs ? Nul ne le sait. Cet incendie intervient en tout cas alors que vendredi dernier, une biche poursuivie par des braconniers jusqu’à Orange a été retrouvée à proximité de l’agence Pôle emploi. Blessé, l’animal n’a pas survécu malgré son transport chez un vétérinaire.”

“Roads spiked, poacher nets destroyed, fish liberated. ALF/ELF Russia 2020. It took us some time to get from the wild mountains and tranquil bays of Southern Crimea, but here is our belated report on ALF/ELF action in the former Ukrainian peninsula annexed by Russian fascist state in 2014. In the past year our group managed to spike forest roads in and around 8 areas of forest logging (‘legal’ and ‘illegal’, it doesn’t matter to us, the eco-anarchists) in central and southern peninsula.

On one occasion we stealthily crawled right under the nose of loggers to cut the tires of their vehicles in broad daylight. This intense anti-logging activity led to locals (most of whom benefit from indiscriminately cutting all the trees in their habitat) to start monitoring every outsider in their area, but we slipped past their patrols unnoticed.

We also took great pleasure in sabotaging poacher fishermen of the peninsula. Throughout the year we removed more than 500 meters of fishing nets of every size and design imaginable. We are happy to report more than 30 marine lives saved. Again, our activity led to certain countermeasures on poachers’ side. On one occasion they almost caught us in an ambush, but we avoided it altogether. On another, our team barely managed to get out of the water and dash for the safety of forested mountains nearby, when boats with poachers homed in on our site of operations.

Yours in the dusky nights of southern seas, Seal Team 5,

“Heading out into the night, not knowing what could play out, isn’t our favourite thing to do. It’s not weird to feel sick to your belly preparing for an action and we are not pushing this as an enjoyable act. This isn’t some irrational compulsion though, there is a lot that drives someone to the windows of a butcher shop in the dead of night with a bag full of bricks.

By this point now, you would think we are not still waiting around for reasons. Another day, another investigation comes to light. Be it in the farms, the hunts, the laboratories, the most terrifying and painful experiences you can imagine for them would still only be scraping the surface. You know this.

So get out there.”

“The bucolic landscape gave way to a vision of desolation. During the night of Monday, April 5 to Tuesday, April 6, a fire completely destroyed the main building of the Stampf pond, in the commune of Schaeferhof in Dabo. The communal equipment, managed by the AAPPMA (Association agréée pour la pêche et la protection du milieu aquatique) of Dabo, was hosting numerous public and private events until the first containment.

The alert was given on Monday around 11:30 pm. But when the emergency services arrived on the spot, the fire had spread to the 200 m² festival hall. Nothing could be saved. The fire was contained around 1:30 am. […]

The building, maintained and up to standards, had not been rented for a year and the first containment. “There were no electrical items connected and no heating,” notes the mayor. Also, the accidental track is unlikely. The arson is preferred, especially since several other incidents of this type have occurred in recent months in the area. The investigation is entrusted to the gendarmerie of Dabo.”

FR:

“Le paysage bucolique a laissé place à une vision de désolation. Dans la nuit du lundi 5 au mardi 6 avril, un incendie a totalement détruit le bâtiment principal de l’étang de la Stampf, dans la commune de Schaeferhof à Dabo. L’équipement communal, géré par l’AAPPMA (Association agréée pour la pêche et la protection du milieu aquatique) de Dabo, accueillait jusqu’au premier confinement de nombreux événements publics et privés.

L’alerte a été donnée lundi vers 23 h 30. Mais lorsque les secours sont arrivés sur place, l’incendie s’était généralisé à la salle des fêtes de 200 m². Rien n’a pu être sauvé. Le sinistre a été circonscrit vers 1 h 30. […]

Le bâtiment, entretenu et aux normes, n’était plus loué depuis un an et le premier confinement. « Il n’y avait pas d’objet électrique branché et pas de chauffage », note le maire. Aussi, la piste accidentelle est peu probable. L’incendie volontaire est privilégié, d’autant que plusieurs autres sinistres de ce type se sont déroulés au cours des derniers mois sur le secteur. L’enquête est confiée à la gendarmerie de Dabo.”
