MULTIPLE RABBITS LIBERATED FROM A PET BREEDER. IN SOLIDARITY WITH THE VIVOTECNIA LAB TORTURED ANIMALS.

(delayed report)

10th April, Kent UK

Received anonymously via email:

“The pet industry have exploited this pandemic like they exploit the animals they sell. Bored and thoughtless people have demanded pets for their entertainment and the breeders have been happy to supply them. During Easter, the objectification of rabbits as things to buy or give as presents increases exponentially, so we thought to raid a pet breeder and take some comrades out.

The breeder we visited has a selection of animals but sadly we couldn’t take all of them. While the breeders slept just meters away we painted some security cameras and quietly entered a shed that housed rabbits and guinea pigs mixed together. To our surprise, a lamb was also locked in the same shed, running around the hutches.

They were confined in small spaces, in disgusting conditions and with very high ammonia smell. We grabbed a few rabbits and disappeared into the night with them. Their nails were so long they couldn’t walk comfortably and they were afraid of human touch, so it will be a long recovery for them.

They will go to loving homes with families who will see them as the individuals they are and not breeding machines or products to sell.

We dedicate this action to all the animals still imprisoned inside the vivotecnia lab and all those fighting to get them out. It has been done before and we can do it again. Break the walls of that lab, liberate those animals!

ALF

UPDATE: A few rabbits turn into many rabbits. It wasn’t surprising that female rabbits coming from that hellhole would be pregnant and we have heard that at least one of the females has given birth. There is no better feeling than knowing that those babies will never know abuse and that their mum will never again be bred.

They will only know freedom. ”

HUNTING TOWER SABOTAGE

May, Seine-et-Marne France

via BiteBackMagazine:

anonymous report:

“At the end of May 2021, in the department of Seine-et-Marne (77), we, antispeciesist activists, destroyed a hunting tower in broad daylight.

A few days before the beginning of the killings authorized by the state, we decided to help the inhabitants of the forest against the ones who would like to see them lose life at the tip of their rifle. For this, we have tried to locate the hunting towers in the areas that will be allowed from June 1st… after a few hours of research we saw one. We approached it seeking possible photo-traps on trees on the sourroundings. There were none. Arrived at the bottom of this solid tower of more than 3 meters high, we understood that we will have to saw the 4 feet and try to topple it. After a few minutes of work, the tower was on the floor. We are hoping that this act of solidarity with the forest inhabitants will save their life. We all know it, without their hunting towers, the shooters are less effective and more vulnerable to the defensive responses of our non-human comrades.

The purpose of this sabotage is to reduce the capacities of the hunters to kill, their finances, their available time and their spirit. Destroying what is useful for those assassins will remove what makes them powerful both physically and mentally… So take your saws, your adjustable wrenchs, and your bolts cutter … and fight alongside the inhabitants of the forest!”

French:

“Fin juin 2021, en France, dans le département de la seine-et-marne (77), nous, activistes antispécistes, avons détruit une tour de chasse en plein jour.

Quelques jours avant le début des tueries autorisées par l’Etat, nous avons décidé de venir en aide aux habitant.e.s de la fôret contre celleux qui voudraient les voir perdre la vie au bout de leur fusil. Pour cela nous avons essayer de localiser les miradors sur les zones de chasse qui seront autorisées à partir du 1er juin… Après quelques heures de recherches nous en avons aperçu un. Nous nous sommes approché.e.s en cherchant les éventuels pièges photos sur les arbres aux alentours. Il n’y en avait pas. Arrivé.e.s en bas de cette solide tour de plus de 3 mètres de haut, nous avons compris qu’il faudrait scier les 4 pieds et tenter de la faire basculer. Après quelques minutes de travail, la tour était par terre. Nous espérons que cet acte de solidarité avec les habitant.e.s de la forêt permettra de leur sauver la vie. Nous le savons, sans leur tour de chasse, les tireurs et tireuses sont moins efficaces et plus vulnérables face aux ripostes défensives de nos camarades non-humain.e.s.
L’objectif de ce sabotage est de réduire la capacités des chass-eurs.euses à tuer, leurs finances, leur temps disponible et leur moral.

Détruire ce qui sert à ces assassin.e.s permettra de leur retirer ce qui les rend puissant.e.s tant matériellement que moralement… alors prennez vos scies, vos clés à molette, et vos coupe-boulons… et luttez aux côtés des habitant.e.s de la forêt !”

T&S RABBITS ANONYMOUS DEMO REPORTBACK

We have received a reportback from a demo but we believe there is a need to give context before.

Over the past few months in the UK, T&S Rabbits, a business that breeds and farms rabbits for meat and fur in the UK, has once again applied for new sites to be open or to build new slaughterhouses in their farms. This is not the first time they try to expand and they very rarely get any success out of their applications, as rabbits in Britain are regarded as pets, so a big part of the local population tends to campaign against those applications.

Historically, T&S has attracted attention a few times. The ALF has reported the liberation of rabbits through multiple raids in their farms , not too long ago Animal Aid produced a very short video showing the conditions of the farmed rabbits, living locked up in hutches until they are slaughtered. Corporate Watch also produced a piece about them as they are one of the very few businesses still able to farm for fur through the loophole of farming for meat.

We received an anonymous report from someone who attended the latest demo in their Derbyshire site, the past 31st of March.

Here are their words:

“Over 60 activists gathered outside the Atlow site of T&S Rabbit murdering scumbags to oppose their planning application to build a rabbit slaughterhouse on their site.

As activists gathered, the cages behind the doors were empty. The owners have moved all rabbits off site, scared of the backlash. Fucking great, you should be scared! We know where your other farms are. We know where you already have a slaughterhouse. We know where you’re planning applications are for. We are watching you. We will be back. And the cages WILL BE EMPTIED!”

PHOTO: sent over with the reportback, that is the current situation in T&S rabbit farms throughout the country.

EIGHTY FIVE QUAILS LIBERATED FROM INTENSIVE FARM

1st June, UK.

Received anonymously via email:

“We had never seen an intensive bird farm as disgusting as this. Birds shitting on each other whilst standing on wire mesh, a suffocating smell that we will not forget and cages so small the birds could barely stand.

The door proved to be easier than we thought. The lock took some convincing but our trusty bolt cutters were enough to access the shed. Once inside, we took 85 quails to safety.

Thousands were left behind. Crammed, exploited and forgotten, covered in spiderwebs and dust. Whoever is responsible for this shit will be hearing from us often. They don’t deserve to sleep until that fucking farm is closed down for good.

This June 11th, we remember Marius and all long term anarchists locked up in prison. Fuck the cages, fuck the justice system, fuck the cops, fuck the lot.

BUTCHERS’ WINDOWS BROKEN AND SPRAY PAINTED

27th May, Brighton UK

received anonymouisly via encrypted email:

“We decided to visit some local points of interest during our holiday to the seaside. This butcher shop took a couple of hits last year so we wanted to join the party even if we were pretty late to it. If hacking animals’ bodies to pieces isn’t bad enough, the owners of this particular “family run”, “organic”, “free range”, “blah blah blah get fucked” store hold some eyebrow-raising views on racism and police brutality, proudly displaying messages of “white lives matter” and “police lives matter” on social media. Hope these scumbags appreciated the eyebrow-raising messages of our own.

Fuck you.

ERIC KING FILING CIVIL SUIT

For anyone who does not know, Eric is an antifascist and anarchist prisoner who is serving a 10 year sentence for throwing Molotov cocktails to an empty federal building. Since 2018, he has been facing incredibly brutal and violating prosecution from the guards in prison. Guards purposely led Eric into a locked up area where a nazi was waiting for him minutes after informing him that a white supremacist group was after him. They sat and watched the nazi beat the shit out of Eric.

Guards beat Eric multiple times whilst in the showers and even shackled him naked to a bed for eight hours straight. He was also led into an out of sight storage area and beaten up by the guards and when defending himself he earned multiple disciplinary complaints that could land him another twenty years in prison.

He has been held in solitary confinement for over 1000 days. 



The sole reason for this abuse is his political believes and the unwillingness to stop talking about it. 



The Civil Liberties Defence Center has now filed a lawsuit on his behalf to challenge the obvious collaboration between white supremacists and guards to harm or even attempt to kill Eric whilst in prison.

There is no doubt that Eric needs as much support as it is humanly possible. He is being targeted as a political prisoner and the mistreatment he is receiving is shocking. Please send a letter to Eric today. Tell him what is going on in your world, or write about some actions or news that you’ve read that you think he would like hearing.

As the prison guards are scum, try to avoid sending cards. Just send letters on white paper, black pen, in case they decide that colourful stuff is too dangerous. 



His address here: 

Eric King #27090-045
FCI Englewood
9595 West Quincy Avenue
Littleton, Colorado 80123

ALFRIDAYS – VIVISECTION BREEDER RAIDED, OVER 150 BIRDS RELEASED (2001)

A recently resurfaced video showing a raid in a vivisection breeding facility in Iowa (USA), where pigeons, ducks and geese were released. Extensive economic sabotage was done to the farm as well as taking breeder tags from the farm.

Whilst grainy, this is quite a good video showcasing the action of just a few individuals to free animals from vivisection. That raid was the second the farm had received.

Another interesting point to note is the fact that the report very clearly mentioned the name of the farm and their address, ensuring that everybody knew where the breeding facility was. This used to be a standard in ALF reports which is not seen very often in actions now.

Adding to that point, a quick search on google maps (aint that some sort of evil?) shows that the place is still breeding animals and most certainly keeping birds in aviaries. Their purpose remains unknown.

You can read the report published after the action below:

“In the early morning hours of October 18, 2001, the Animal Liberation Front visited Double T Farms (21655 Barrus Rd., Glenwood, Iowa.), a breeder of birds for vivisection.

We located the pigeon shed, and cut through the wire mesh perimeter. 62 pigeons were found and released. These pigeons were destined for a cruel and senseless death at the hands of vivisectors.

All possible nesting boxes were emptied, and breeder tags were removed from each bird. The shed was also damaged. A second aviary containing ducks and geese was located, and 50 yards of netting cut away, allowing approximately 50 birds held captive within to escape.

A third aviary holding approximately 50 geese was similarly ripped apart, and those geese who did not immediately take flight were picked up and taken outside.

Approximately 162 birds were released.

This is the A.L.F.’s second visit to Double T Farms , and there will be further visits until Ted Golka’s operation is shut down.

Risking our freedom for theirs.
A.L.F.”

FIFTY ONE CHICKENS LIBERATED

20th May, Midlands UK.

received anonymosuly via email:

“We’re taking the animals back off you animal farming scum, one by one!

Tonight we took 51 chickens from your shitty, mite-infested sheds. We rescued “your” slaves and now they’re safe and free. They won’t live out your plan: to be murdered when they’re no longer profitable to you.

We’re sick of you animal abusers – parasites; draining every last penny out of your victim’s little, depleted bodies until they’re dead.

We fucking hate you! We’ve had enough of your sick, selfish ways. We’re coming to your homes and your places of work. We’re coming for the animals and we’re coming for you! Get another job! Try earning your living not enslaving, oppressing, exploiting and murdering others.”
