anonymous communiqe:

"During a night in September, a group of liberationists set out to locate and destroy a large scale game breeder in East Sussex.

Water dispensers were sliced and combined with feed hoppers to soil the grain, barbed wire fences were cut, and a nearby fox trap was chopped to pieces. However tonight wasn't about causing economic loss. It was about liberating innocent lives..... AND causing economic loss!

Workers living on the site in a portacabin and caravan with dogs barking through the night didn't deter us. We located an intensive breeder shed, crammed solid with hundreds of young Partridges. Outside was a run where the birds could leave the dusty shed to walk through inches of their own excrement and see the outside world through metres of wire mesh and netting. Not any more! A few hours with us there and the runs were in pieces, having removed the roof netting and ripping side panels down. Thousands of birds were herded from the units and were last seen flying off into the skies, back into the wild where they should be.

These 'people' are fairly thick types so in case it wasn't clear who had been we left a few messages around the place. 'LOST SOMETHING?' adorns the side of his now empty breeding unit, along with 'FUCK SHOOTING'.

ANIMAL LIBERATION NOW - what are you waiting for?

CAGES CUT OPEN AT LAB ANIMAL SUPPLIER (USA)

reported anonymously:

"Late on September 10 we entered the compound of Worldwide Primates (16450 SW 180th Street, Miami, Florida) and cut large holes in 4 outdoor cages. Each cage held 5 or 6 monkeys.

There is no doubt that monkeys can survive in Florida. There are hundreds of wild monkeys in colonies across the state. Worldwide Primates is surrounded by fruit farms.

Worldwide Primates is the business of convicted baby orangutan smuggler Matthew Block. He spent one year in prison and then went back to work importing and selling primates to vivisection labs.

Mr. Block, we haven't forgotten you. Your work is still criminal in our eyes.

- Animal Liberation Front"

DAIRY, EGG DISTRIBUTORS PAINTED (Mexico)

received anonymously:

"Yesterday night, September 8, we sabotaged three businesses engaged in the exploitation of animals.
Our primary objective was 4 pet stores, but unfortunately due to time and space it was best not to do it, so we decided to visit a distributor of dairy products. We threw red paint on its facade and we painted slogans.
Afterwards we attacked a distributor of eggs; we threw red paint and painted the slogans: 'eggs are torture' and 'stop the exploitation,' along with symbols of the f.l.a.
A few meters further we painted slogans on the walls of a 'seafood' restaurant, on it we put, 'meat is death' and 'Do not kill fish,' and also symbols of the f.l.a. ...

It is very important to show the facts of these businesses to the public, to ask about what is hidden in packaged products and their 'beautiful and artistic' plates filled with death and suffering.

Until the exploitation ends...

f.l.a."

Cages Opened at Florida Primate Breeder

Cages Opened at Florida Primate Breeder
At Least 20 Non-Human Primates Get a Chance at Freedom from Torture

Miami, FL: According to a communique received by the North American Animal Liberation Press Office this week, cages containing twenty or more captive non-human primates at Worldwide Primates were opened by Animal Liberation Front activists. It is unclear how many individuals made their escape into the surrounding orchards, but those who didn't escape are destined for lives of misery in vivisection laboratories. Worldwide Primates, located at 16450 SW 180th Street in Miami, is operated by Mathew Block, who spent a year in prison after his conviction for smuggling baby orangutans into the United States.

There has been increasing focus on the issue of non-human primates used for vivisection recently, including acts of sabotage against vivisectors who experiment on them in laboratories around the US. While animal rights activists believe that all vivisection should be abolished, ending the use of non-human primates in experimentation has become a focal point for many throughout the world. In an apparently well thought-out strategy that abolitionists have used historically to end Apartheid, the US slave trade and additional atrocities around the world, animal activists have now focused on a single issue, the abolition of primate vivisection.

In 2006 an Austrian Parliament agreed to a ban on ape experiments, and experiments on apes that are not in the interest of the subject are now illegal in principle in that country. A Spanish government resolution in June provided certain rights to self-integrity to great apes, including the right to not be experimented on by humans. And last September, 393 members of the European parliament voted to ban all primate experimentation in Europe.

Press Officer Jerry Vlasak, MD states: "There is increasing demand that non-human primates stop being placed in barren steel cages, tortured by humans and then killed in scientifically fraudulent, perverted and evil experiments; there are signs throughout the world that this a goal whose time has come. I wish all the luck to those offered freedom from Worldwide Primates in Florida, and urge the rest of the world to shutter companies like this that imprison, exploit and sell into slavery non-human primates."
