anonymous communique (translation):

"To all those who lost their freedom for that of the animals (Austrians…):

Explosive devices were used against an administrative building and against refrigerated trucks at the largest center in France for breeding animals for death under the scalpel: Charles River France - Lieu-dit Les Oncins - 69210 Saint Germain sur l'Arbresle.
Tel: 04 74 01 69 69 (RENAUD Real, DRANSARD Thierry and MOLHO-Davide Andrea)

In this concentration camp, each day untold numbers of rabbits, mice, guinea pigs, monkeys (see photographs)… are incinerated after being tortured for months or years.
Others are bred to be sold to pharmaceutical companies like Novartis, HLS, Sanofi…
This activity of barbaric torture is profitable, and money motivates this system!

We have not finished with you… The cause is right and nothing can stop the ALF: neither your millions, or repression…

Only you can choose to put a permanent stop to this massacre. Think well Real (with your asshole assassin friends Thierry and David-Andrea) because your decision will be heavy with consequences.

Let us be clear: we are concerned with the whole of the vivisection industry.

ALF"

*Charles River is the world's largest supplier of animals for vivisection. The company operates over 100 "production facilities" and laboratories in 17 countries.

UP ON THE MOORS (UK)

received anonymously:

"Bradford Council has recently agreed a contract to allow the unacceptable shooting of grouse on the public land of Ilkley moor, West Yorkshire. This agreement has been made with Edward Bromet of the Bingley moor partnership that currently manages shoots on the Bingley and Burley moors.

Activists investigated coverts in the Bingley moor area, and in the first woodland found a number of snares in a region of rough fencing with gaps for channeling animals. Within this compound an artificial earth was uncovered next to the grouse pen, there were no foxes evident in the area, and the grouse pen was empty, however, this sturdy structure did not take long to be completely demolished.

In the next covert a larsen trap was discovered and destroyed, further along a trap that looked to be used for rats or small mammals was discovered and also dismantled.

In the next covert more snares were found and destroyed,

This action is dedicated to Judge Ross.

End the Ilkley moor shoot.

Animal Liberation Front"
