BIOCAIR (HLS SUPPLIER) REDECORATED (UK)
anonymous communique:
"Under the cover of darkness, Cambridge Exterior Designers Inc. paid a visit to Biocair, an industrial supplies company with customers like the notorious Huntington Life Sciences.
Upon arrival at the building, activists decided it looked plain and boring. They agreed that a little re-decoration was in order to bring the place up-to-date and out of the dark ages where animal experimentation belongs.
After key-pads were glued and slogans sprayed on to the walls, glass-etching fluid was thrown at the windows and paint-stripper brushed on to the door-frames. Activists then moved on to the vans parked outside the building. Locks were glued, paint-stripper thrown over the bonnets and the word 'SCUM' brushed into the already-blistering paint-work. Glass-etching fluid was again used, this time on the wing-mirrors and windscreens.
In the darkened car-park, the activists' movements were aided by the security lights that Biocair had kindly installed, allowing them to see the locks and tools more easily. Evidence of a previous attack by a different cell was visible, the words 'Puppy Killers' noticeable on the garage doors.
This appauling company obviously hasn't learned its lesson yet. If you would like to become a teacher for a night, feel free to pop down to:

and leave your application in writing/paint/etching fluid there. Alternatively, please ring:

ALF ATTACK FOIE GRAS RESTAURANT (UK)
Media report: http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2008/02/391793.html
received anonymously:
"In the early hours of Sunday morning, ALF activists arrived at Midsummer House. This disgusting restaurant, situated on Chesterton Road, Cambridge, continues to support the cruel foie gras industry by selling pate de foie gras.
By profitting from the torture of ducks and geese for an unnecessary and unhealthy 'delicacy', Midsummer House became a target for the ALF.
Slogans like 'Stop Selling Foie Gras' and 'Ban Foie Gras' were among those spray-painted on to the walls and windows of the building. Activists glued the locks and applied paint-stripper to door and window frames and varnished wood. Glass-etching fluid was also employed to damage the windows.
We hope this action will discourage Midsummer House from selling foie gras. Anyone who chooses several hours of scrubbing over a few minutes of altering a menu and calling a supplier really does need their head checking.
Until all are free, Keep on fighting.

BILLBOARDS, HONEYBAKED HAM VANDALIZED (USA)
received anonymously:
"Having recently learned to anonymously claim actions over the internet, there are actions we've taken that we'd now like to take credit for, both to inspire others and add to the record of animal libration actions.
9 billboards were hit with paint-filled lightbulbs we learned how to make from the Swedish ALF instructional video in the preceding 3 years.
Several billboards were also vandalized with spraypaint during the same period.
A Honey Baked Ham store was vandalized with spraypainted slogans.
A rat was rescued from a glue trap.

16 VEHICLES SABOTAGED AT HUNT KENNELS (UK)
Hunters press release: http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2008/02/391735.html
anonymous report:
"On the night of Sat. the 16th of Feb. we took action against the Beaufort and Vale of the White Horse Hunt kennels as well as the offices of the Master of Foxhounds Association. In all 16 vehicles including horse boxes, cars and 4x4's had their tyres slashed, paintstripped and painted. We also painted their walls with ALF.
This action is dedicated to Mike Hill the young hunt sab killed by hunt scum. This action is also timed to coincide with the anniversary of the hunt ban 3 years ago. The ban's not being enforced and most hunts still kill animals. Maybe when they stop breaking the law we will.
No Justice Just Us
