IS YOUR LOCAL FUR FARM MISSING ITS FARMER? (USA, Canada)

received anonymously:

"---For Immediate Release - August 26th, 2009---

The Fur Farm Intelligence Unit is taking responsibility for the confiscation of the list of 2009 Canada Mink Breeder's Association Annual Meeting attendees from fur industry files at an unnamed location.

Approximately 270 mink farms remain in the United States, many more in Canada. Towards the goal of exposing this industry in full, from farm addresses to feed supplier locations, the Fur Farm Intelligence Unit is making the following list public. Herein is the list of registered guests of the 2009 Canada Mink Breeders Association Annual Meeting, held this year in Madison, WI (U.S.A.), on August 30th, 31st, and September 1st. All individuals listed are staying at the Hilton Madison Monona Terrace (9 East Wilson Street, Madison, WI. (608) 255-5100). This is the first CMBA annual meeting held outside of Canada. This conference brings together not just Canadian farmers, but many from the U.S.

The guilty have now been exposed.

CRUEL BUSINESSES GLUED AND PAINTED (Uruguay)

received anonymously (translation):

"In the early morning hours of August 9th, the Uruguay cell of the F.L.A. took to the streets to demonstrate its rejection of all animal exploiting companies.
As it made its way downtown the cell found a place where they sell all kinds of weapons for killing animals; the premises were glued and painted with the slogans, 'MURDERERS' 'F.L.A.' and 'HUNT = MURDER.' The action was quick because of security concerns; we did not seal the door properly and the shop was not closed for several hours as we expected, but only during the early hours of the morning.

Later we found a place where they sell death as food, so we painted 'F.L.A.' and 'MEAT = MURDER' and we glued the place. Again this place was reopened in the early hours of the morning, but it was made known that the Uruguay F.L.A. is here and is growing and each time we will be more effective against the exploiters.

We will start like a light breeze and end like a hurricane!
Damaging and Eliminating all torturing, genocidal companies!

Animal Liberation!
F.L.A URUGUAY !"

TIRES FLATTENED ON LIVESTOCK TRUCK (Spain)

anonymous report:

"Every day thousands of animals die in slaughterhouses, victims of a speciesist diet.
On August 16th, six tires were punctured on a trailer truck which was used to drive animals to the slaughterhouse.
For the animals."
