The BUAV has released footage of a shipment of 120 long-tailed macaques being loaded on to an Air France flight. On their website they state that the flight took place on May 12 2011 and that the monkeys were transported from Vietnam to Covance in the USA. Fortunately the Air France Cargo shipment number is clearly visible in the video, (057 90196083), and by using this activists have been able to trace the monkeys' journey from Vietnam to the USA in minute detail!

Air France-KLM are the number one transporter of laboratory animals worldwide and for this reason they are the target of a global animal rights campaign!

AETA, passed with the help of slaughterhouse state senators, California Senator Dianne Feinstein's husband Richard Blum and the FBI, is an unconstitutional law which limits animal rights activists' 1st amendment rights to expose brutality to animals. Now Minnesota,
Iowa and Florida legislators want to hide further the abbatoir torture caught in video such as those above. A ban on filming would help those who profiteer from mongering cancerridden, ecoli saturated cadavers of murdered animals. One Minnesota Health Dept official said giving rare meat to a child is a form of chlid endangering akin to driving 95 mph on the highway. A California dairy operation film showed injured cows being pushed with forklifts into a chain link fence.

The show this week looks at the soft underbelly of the corporate system - the growing awareness that it is destroying the planet. First we hear from the ALF/ELF spokesman, Steve Best, who advocates any and all kinds of direct action to defend the earth and prevent its plunder. Then it's a talk from John Stauber on how the environmental movement died as a result of cooptation by big corporations.

Another busy season...

A European ban on the marketing of all cosmetics products that have been tested on animals is due to come into effect in March 2013. However, it now appears that the ban is going to be postponed yet again, possibly even until 2025!
