LIBERATION IN MANCHESTER (UK)

received anonymously:

"Three hamsters and four mice have been liberated from a pet shop in Manchester.

The water was discoloured, the food inadequate, and the space non existent. Keeping animals in such appalling conditions is unacceptable! Clean up your act or we'll be back!

ALF"

RED PAINT SPILLED AT BUTCHERS (Mexico)

received anonymously (translation):

"The night of February 23 the Animal Liberation Front - Commando Green Black (FLA-CVN), committed to causing economic sabotage to businesses that— through suffering and pain— expand their wallets, and to sound a warning to the pocketbooks of speciest capitalism.

This time red paint, the color of blood, was poured on the floors, walls, mirrors and awnings of seven restaurants and butchers in Mexico State. This action against speciest animal-murdering carnivores delivers a cost to these businesses. But this paint spilled is very little in comparison to what they shed every day, selling the carcasses of once-living beings.

Long live the noble and courageous struggle of animal avengers."

>>

ACTIONS AGAINST CRUEL TRAPS (UK)

anonymous report:

"14 electronic traps and 3 glue mats designed to kill mice and other rodents have been sabotaged and removed from several shops in Yorkshire, leaflets detailing humane alternatives were left behind in their place.

2 rat traps utilising poisoned bait were also destroyed and the bait disposed of safely.

These kinds of traps are barbaric, and will be destroyed where they are found.

Yorkshire ALF"

GRILLS MADE UNUSABLE (Mexico)

anonymous report:

"The Animal Liberation Front of Mexico (FLAM) went at it again to prove that the attacks against shops and businesses of murderers will not stop. As vegans we struggle for complete animal and human liberation from capitalist corruption imposed by tradition or by the ideology of cultural and economic colonization. This latest attack was carried out by activists from FLAM on February 25th. Three large outdoor grills where large numbers of our animal brothers and sisters' bodies are fried were sprayed with paint and shit and were made completely unusable. In the morning the speciest owners didn't know what happened and thought for the first time about stopping the slaughter.

Our efforts stop the holocaust of animals."

>>

HUNTING PLATFORMS CUT (Austria)

reported by activists in Austria:

"On Saturday, media reported that 3 hunting platforms were cut in Salzburg."
