“On a fine Sunny afternoon, just before the new year, some pixies were out for a stroll in the cuntryside. When suddenly, they found a hunting tower! Unfortunately, tripped into the tower very hard, resulting in it falling over! OOPSIE!
Yours truly,

It is becoming a standard that our comrades at Underground Badger Syndicate create a little video at the end of the badger cull to showcase what the angry punk badgers have been up to. this year it wasn’t any different and they did not disappoint.
Have a look at the video and read what they have to say below:
“The long awaited UBS Documentary 2.0 is here. It has taken some time, but imagine how diffiult it is to edit videos whilst being a badger.
In this video we bring you clips that we’ve been sent over email or that we’ve found on the internet or inside of badger setts. Mostly we just want to remind people that they should put their middle finger up to animal exploitation, to the filth and to anyone that tries to murder animals for whatever backwards reason.
Badger cages are a fun target for your middle fingers, specially after they’ve been smashed to bits. Other targets might include pheasant and duck feeders, shooting towers, your local dairy farmer and every single police officer (because ACAB).
With this video we also want to extend our love to every single person that travelled through Europe to join us in the fight. Big up Hunt Saboteurs Sweden, Hambacher Forst Besetzung and a bunch of groupless dirty punks that came during the badger cull from far away countries just to join us in getting wet and flipping off basically everything we could see moving.
Special mention once again to the british police for being such a bunch of radioactive flem bukets. They can now once again retreat back under their fucking rock and stop “investigating crime in the countryside” until the cull starts again. All whilst ignoring the mass murder of animals year round. Fuck off.
Aware that many sab groups are posting their views on the upcoming elections we have a lil advice too. We don’t give a shit who you vote for or if you even fucking vote. Just remember to embrace anarchism, ALWAYS vote with your boots, ALWAYS take direct action.
UNTIL WE FUCKING WIN.
Fuck cops.
PS: We have merch so if you want some UBS tshirts fucking PM us and we will get you sorted. Seriously get some of our merch so we can carry on being “forest jihadis”.
And if you don’t want to fall for the fucking capitalist enterprise do us a solid and just send us a couple of coins over paypal. That would be massively appreciated.

“In a house near the Euganeo stadium in Padua (Italy)… A new life has been rescued, from a horrible place where his life depended only on his release.
Now he is free and away from his horrible nightmare.”

report from michalkolesar.net (click here for more photos from the rescue):
“Rescue Action LIV (November 2019) & Support Project FANG
This report contains 3 rescue actions in which we liberated 67 animals. 26 animals on the first action, 23 on the second and on third wee took 18 of them. We did not ask the businessmen, politicians nor the consumers. We did not care about the public opinion. Why should we?
We climbed over the fence, opened the door and took those hens away.
They are now in new homes with people who created a better world for them. They can spread wings and run. They see the sun instead of artificial lighting. Fresh air instead of the ventilators of the factory farm. The weaker hens are able to escape the stronger hens.
It is not normal that animals are kept in such conditions and for such purposes. It is normal that we do not leave them there.
Support Project FANG
In 2006 in NYC the Anarchist Black Cross launched Project FANG. Their aim is to help families and close people of those who are imprisoned for defending animals and nature. For example, they aim to provide the travel costs associated with visiting the prisoners.
November and December, France.
Two separated news have appeared from late November and early December where unknown humans set fire to hunting buildings. No claim of responsibility has been received.
Read below the BiteBack Magazine account of actions:
“A hunting association clubhouse in Saint-Pierre-du-Mont was set on fire early on December 1. “Romania” was found painted inside the building, a possible reference to the recent incident in which thousands of sheep died in a capsized cargo ship off the coast of Romania.”
“A hunting hut in Saint-Amand-les-Eaux was heavily damaged by fire on November 27. A container of gasoline was found inside.”

“The owners of the fur selling shop named Wacko in Stockholm made a promise earlier this year to close the shop in november 2019. They broke that promise, so we broke their window and glued their lock.
We never give in and we always win!
For the animals.

“A few nights ago, 25 activists liberate around a hundred bunnies from one of the biggest cage farm of Wallonia (Belgium) these individuals are now living free, happy and surrounded with the love they deserve, far from the speciesist hell they were locked in.
They were promised to a nightmare, a terrible fate of slaughter for some humans to enjoy a macabre Christmas meal. This horrible tradition has to end. Animals are not on earth for us but with us. Join the movement, take action. Open the cages and offer your fellow earthlings a home and a family.”
EDITOR’S NOTE: Due to the magnitude of the action and the high quality of the photos we have blurred eyes before publishing. We have also deleted sound from the video. This is not Unoffensive’s job, so folks sending reports should be aware of security and take the steps themselves.

“This week in the south east some of us went out into the night to get some footage and help some comrades out. We had to wait hidden in the dark for quite some time as the farmer was still out on the farm at almost 1am. We watched him walking around, finishing the last jobs of the day, we watched him going into the house and we watched him turn off his bedroom light. Once we were sure he was asleep we crept past his house and to the sheds.
We could hear them, but unlike the last time the doors were locked. We checked every door on every shed, we considered brute force but we have future plans for this place so didn’t want to leave a mark. We went to another place that had been on our radar but despite the hour there were people about. Frustrated but undeterred we went to a third location. A ‘free range’ egg farm. We found a number of hens wet from the rain and huddled against the walls of cold metal sheds. They were a sad sight, one especially was in a bad way. We filled our bags and left, wishing we could take them all. On the journey home they chatted to each other and us, making an assortment of interesting noises.
We dedicate this action to our prisoners and all those kept in confinement. While people are busy this holiday season consuming more things they do not need and do not make anyone happy, we ask that you do not forget our prisoners. Both human and non human animals need our support. Write to prisoners, send them books, help them out of their cages if you can. Whatever you do, do not forget our comrades facing state repression.

“Sheep left to die collapsed in a field.
This isn’t the only one in recent weeks that’s needed an emergency rescue by comrades.They had been purposefully left with obvious injuries, pain and diseases for months on end, crippling them to the point of collapse.
One had been eaten alive by maggots, only just about surviving after emergency care. The vet was horrified and had never seen one in such condition survive, but they did. Sheep are fucking incredible creatures who always put up such a fight to live.
The pain they have suffered is incomprehensible, terrified and alone just left like that, thinking they were probably going to just die there. Unable to rest or sleep with anxiety of being so exposed and vulnerable in agony. This is another fucking disgusting example of ‘Great British Farming’.
It seems in recent weeks their liberation comes from such miserable circumstances, like the sheep trapped inside the capsized ship in Romania, where thousands drowned, but over 200 were eventually rescued.
It doesn’t need to be this way, they don’t need to suffer, they are there, waiting for you to aid them out of their prisons.
These libs are dedicated to #smashspeciesism where they watched cops herd the trapped sheep into the slaughter house to have their throats slit.
Fuck farmers, fuck cops, fuck oppression.
Don’t be sorry, do something.”
