THREE HUNTING TOWERS DESTROYED.

2nd October, Sweden

anonymous report:

“Later this month the moose hunting season starts in large parts of Sweden. Thousands and thousands of moose will be shot to death in the Scandinavian wilderness. Three towers were toppled and sabotaged by den svenska djurrättsmilisen (the Swedish animal rights militia). Hopefully it will save some animal lives, but at least it will make it harder for the psychopaths to murder them.

Two messages were left on wooden boards that were ripped off a tower: ‘Nästa gång dödar vi er. //DRM (English: Next time we’ll kill you. //ARM)’ and ‘Älgarna ska leva (English: The moose shall live!)’.

More towers will fall.

Den svenska djurrättsmilisen.”

PIZZA HUT WINDOW SMASHED

6th October, Brighton

Received anonymously via email:

“We saw someone had done in this pizza hut window before and how after replacing the glass the shop had written ‘vegan options here’ where the broken glass used to be. We knew then that it had to be done again. Our allegiance to the animals this company exploits, the environment this company pollutes and the staff they use can not be so easily bought.

We thought of Waka that day. A young man who died fighting alongside the YPG two years ago and who is missed by many. Including those who never met him but are touched by the actions he took to defend animals, both human and non human, and the planet we all inhabit.

We know a broken window is hardly enough to honour his memory and all the he lived and died for. But a broken window can turn into something much more. This is a call for all of us to see what Waka saw, that each injustice leads to another and we must challenge all of them. We must stop waiting for a saviour that will never arrive and get shit done ourselves. Occupy a tree to stop it being cut down, steal everything you can from the scummy corporations that fuck us all over, sab the hunters, open cages, fight to get rid of the borders killing so many.

To all our comrades, dead and alive, we stand together.

Waka will not be forgotten”

16 TURKEYS LIBERATED

Late September, East Midlands, UK.

received anonymously via email:

“It’s that time of year again…
Under the cover of darkness we arrived at a farm known to have Turkeys on site. Turkeys destined for someone’s christmas dinner… no fucking way, not on our watch.
After seeking out 16 homes for our feathery friends, we crossed two fields towards to the enclosure where they were kept, stopping only to hide when an upstairs light on the farm house went on. One human remained on lookout whilst the rest packed 16 turkeys into the carriers. They were stubborn and larger than we anticipated, these were fast growers and had already put on a load of weight since we checked out the site before.
Once we were fully loaded, we struggled across the two fields with full crates and arms full of turkeys. This was slower than our way in and our presence was enough to alert the cows in the field. Loud moo-ing and alarms calls soon followed. Lights came on in the buildings nearby. Our only thought at this point could be getting these birds to safety, like hell were we getting caught and having them taken back. 
Thankfully, we made it. All 16 will live full, happy lives.

Now is the time for turkey rescue, before it’s too late!”

“Inspired by our fellow activists abroad, this was something we really liked, so went ahead and do research on the websites mentioned. With this add hack we honor the two year anniversary of Roses Law, and with the quote “All Animals Need Protection Under The Law” we honor Regan Russel who was murdered by a slaughterhouse truck driver.

TWO FUR FARMS RAIDED.

Late summer, USA.

Received anonymously via email:

“Late this summer animal liberation activists carried out two raids on fur farms in Idaho and Utah. Fencing was ripped down and nearly 2,000 mink were released allowing them to clamor toward freedom. Both farms sat near the edges of mostly undeveloped public lands, allowing plenty of habitat for the newly freed native predators.
 
Walking through a large field, quietly climbing a barbed wire cattle fence, and crossing the road in clear view of the house associated with the first farm proved easy. It became clear there was no visible electronic security, and the activists bet heavily that the faint barking was from a neighbor’s property, or at least from a dog contained within the fur farmer’s house.
 
Cage after cage, row after row, shed after shed, latches were opened and nesting boxes removed allowing the mink to escape to their rightful home. They spaced out the releases in order to disperse the noise from disturbed mink away from a singular location. The surreal and beautiful moment where the mink explored in the moonlight will be carried in the hearts of those that gazed upon them for a lifetime. The approving chorus from coyotes in the nearby hills still echo in their ears.

Days later, these activists found themselves before another sprawling fur farm complex. Watching for nearly an hour to be sure there was no movement from within the compound, they sat patiently, preparing to penetrate the property and rip down another fence. As they sat they could hear the scratching and faint chirping of imprisoned mink.
    
Beneath a bright moon, nearly full and neon pink behind the haze from the massive nearby wildfires, they proceeded to the perimeter. Cutting vertically though the chain link from top to bottom in two places 20’ apart, they prepared the fence to be felled by just a few quick snips along the top when the time came. This helped disguise the preparations should a security vehicle pass. The small wire cutters they thought to pack this time also quickened their work on the chicken wire at the base.
    
Several sheds were completely emptied. Its previous inhabitants were much more lively than the last farm too – screaming, running, and climbing the eight foot tall perimeter fence. More than 1100 were released and then the fence was toppled for all to make their escape.

Caging the wild is a heinous offense against life – against freedom. Every cage is worth emptying, and to begin this work is not difficult. Pressure from animal liberation activists, a declining demand for the products and economic downswings have come together to push the archaic fur industry further than ever towards full collapse. Wiping fur farms off the landscape is a worthy and attainable goal. What’s needed now is for the reader to reflect on what is stopping them from picking up where others left off.

As the fur industry teeters on the brink of collapse these efforts intend to push it over the edge. At this point, actually, finding operational farms seems to be one of the hardest parts. The rest is straight forward.

These activists lamented at one point that this activity wasn’t better training for assailing human prisons, too, but know any action can sharpen skills useful for confronting every industry.”

8 RABBITS RELEASED FROM A CAGE FARM.

26th September, Belgium.

Received anonymously via email:

“In the night of September 26Th 4 antispeciesist activists liberated 8 rabbits from a breeder farm in Belgium.

Thousands of rabbits are kept here in caged systems, from newborns who stay 6 weeks until their slaughter, to male breeder rabbits used as artificial insemination sperm donors.
We’re sorry we couldn’t carry more as we had to walk trough ditches, through cornfields and encounter bulls in the field.

A re-visit is planned. Now all rabbits have a chance to live somewhere where they are loved and cherished. Some little rabbits even jumped for joy as they came into their new home that night.

We encourage everyone to lobby to end these cage systems and ridiculous welfare ‘park’ systems, and plea for a total ban on rabbit meat in stores.

Get active. Take action. Empty all cages.”

“Several offensive actions during August and September in Ile de France, Maine et Loire, Loire Atlantique and Mayenne:

Hunting towers were destroyed, farms spray painted and six geese were rescued.

As long as the truth is not restored, as long as the victims of the specism are not at peace, you won’t have it either.
Animalist resistance will never stop.”
