ACTIVISTS SABOTAGE NEW LABCORP BUILDING AND DESTROY RAT TRAPS AT A NEARBY PUB.

27th June, Leeds UK.

Hidden in an industrial corner of Leeds earmarked for ‘regeneration’, a new base for human clinical trials operated by Labcorp is under development. Labcorp’s laboratories, such as the one in Harrogate, are the destination of the 16-week-old beagles from MBR Acres, along with primates from Mauritius, where they are forced to endure experiments that can involve being force-fed chemicals for up to 90 days.

With news of the five beagles liberated recently from MBR Acres filling us with joy, we set out to express our rage and send a message that even the family-friendly public-facing arm of vivisection isn’t welcome. We headed to the site and found it all but deserted, sneaking past the poorly fitted fencing until we were surrounded by machinery and rubble.

Padlocks to the site and doors on construction machinery were glued shut, an assessment of the current interior layout was taken and as we saw a flash of hi-vis patrolling a chunk of metal was thrown through a main window, and we ran.

After getting out of the area, we made a quick pitstop at a pub: not for a pint, but to hear the sound of cracking plastic underfoot as barbaric rat traps were destroyed and poison removed.

This action may seem pointless and futile, and it certainly won’t bring an end to animal testing, but that wasn’t the point. Rage can be a thing of joy, and small acts of resistance as an expression of joyful militancy serve as a reminder that we can strike whenever and however we want, and our beliefs are that of direct conflict with the system of multi-faceted oppression that we’re all fighting against.

This action was taken in solidarity with those fighting against MBR Acres and vivisection worldwide, with the campaign against T&S Rabbits, with each and every individual rising up for basic bodily autonomy in the US, with those on the RMT picket lines, the Kolektyw Wilczyce and Atlanta Forest defenders; truly with each and everyone taking liberatory action against any oppression.

Liberation is love, and love is joyous.

“Play is characterised by a vital impulse that is always new, always in movement. By acting as though we are playing, we charge our action with this impulse. We free ourselves from death. Play makes us feel alive. It gives us the excitement of life. In the other model of acting we do everything as though it were a duty, as though we ‘had’ to do it. ” – Alfredo Bonanno’

ANONYMOUS ACTIVISTS DO UNCOMMISIONED PAINTWORK ON IMPEX OWNER’S HOUSE.

June, Thrapston UK

PLEASE NOTE: this report was sent by somebody that by chance heard about the action, but the words of the people involved have not been received.

“These are reportedly images of further paintwork applied to the exterior of Russell Morgans house, director/owner/driver for Impex Services International Ltd, living in Toll Bar Road, Thrapston.

I don’t know who took the photos.

Russell was driving for Impex in this weeks most recent triple vanload collection from MBR Acres, and was also spotted the week before attempting to disguise his identity while driving dogs to their deaths.”

“Greetings
In the early hours of the 16th of June We visited the butchers shop in St Werbergs, Bristol.
There glass door and big window where shattered using rocks. The meat industry must end.
ALF”

EDITOR’S NOTE: Alongside this report, we received another message 12 hours later. It seems like someone found out that people use UA as an anonymous reporting platform:

“You fucking cunts stop smashing shop windows – Wait until we find you. You will be caught taken away and have your hands butchered off.

It will only be a matter of time”.

To the anonymous, threatening butcher, we would like to ask you for a favour, could you please send us some photos of the smashed windows? Whoever did yous never sent any media with it and in order to publish things, photos and videos round up the news story a lot better.

ACTIVISTS SABOTAGE ARCHERY SHOP

10th June , Montreal, Canada.

received anonymouslty via email:

“After hearing its owner encouraging bowhunting on a local podcast, we decided to pay a visit to the self-proclaimed best archery specialty shop in the province.

The windows have been redecorated and the locks have been glued.

We aim to affect the wallet of this store who sells thousands of hunting weapons each year.

This action is dedicated to Katniss la combatante, a groundhog recently found alive in the east end of town, with an arrow piercing her back leg, shot by a coward but also to any wild animals who are unlucky enough to find themselves in the sights of a hunter”

THE BITE BACK BUNNIES BRIGADE LIBERATES TWELVE RABBITS FROM A T&S RABBITS FUR FARM.

23rd June, East Bridgford UK.

Received anonymously via email:

“Fuck your fences, fuck your fur farm!

While Anne – a T&S fur farm worker- slept in her static caravan, we crept around nearby. We easily cut through the fence surrounding the farm and went straight for a pen, catching as many rabbits as we had homes for. The rabbits didn’t make it easy for us, they made so much noise but we moved quickly and in minutes filled a number of carriers. With just a few left we walked over to the hutches nearest to the caravan and looked in to see a mother and her babies, just old enough to survive a late night adventure. We scooped them and mum up and left.

Back through the hole in the fence and happy in the knowledge that these rabbits would make it and never see a fur farm again. Our twelve new friends have now found the happiest of forever homes. No more tiny hutches, instead they will feel the earth and be free to do the biggest zoomies – just as all rabbits in that hell hole should!

As long as there’s rabbits being farmed we will be watching this place and we will come back.

Fuck you Phil Kerry.

Love and rage,

The Bite Back Bunnies Brigade.

The actions of this night were carried out in memory of Regan Russell, killed on June 19th two years ago; and Aaron Francis, a Northants hunt saboteur who recently passed away. We will keep their memory alive by continuing to fight for liberation for all.”

ACTIVISTS LIBERATE FIVE BEAGLES FROM VIVISECTION BREEDER MBR ACRES

20th  June, UK.

originally published on Animal Freedom Movement

“Activists from Animal Freedom Movement, a project supported by Animal Rebelion, have liberated 5 beagle puppies from MBR Acres!

These dogs were bred in this farm, ready to be shipped off to laboratories when they reached around 16 weeks old. Once they reached the labs, they would have been subject to unimaginable horrors in the name of ‘science’. Many of them would likely have suffered internal bleeding, vomiting, organ failure and worse, before eventually being killed.

In this day and age, it is simply unnecessary. Testing on animals is ineffective and unreliable when it comes to translating results to the human population. We have many, many alternative methods that are more relevant, valuable and do not require torturing and murdering animals.

We are absolutely thrilled to have safely rescued 5 dogs from this awful fate, and look forward to them being given loving homes and living the rest of their lives safe from abuse.”
