Ανέλαβαν την ευθύνη για την απελευθέρωση γουνοφόρων ζώων mink σε Καστοριάς και Σιάτιστα.
Δίνουμε στην δημοσιότητα το κείμενο που αναρτήθηκε σε αγγλική ιστοσελίδα μέσα από το οποίο δίδονται πληροφορίες για την δράση τους εκείνη την νύχτα. Χαρακτηριστικός είναι ο επίλογος τους ” Απελευθερώνοντας τα ζώα από τα κλουβιά είναι ένας τρόπος για να κάνουμε τις ιδέες μας πράξη. Είμαστε αντίθετοι με την καταπίεση, την εκμετάλλευση και τη φυλάκιση. Αυτός ο πολιτισμός έχει δημιουργηθεί για κάθε ζωντανό πλάσμα, ανεξάρτητα από το είδος, τη φυλή, το φύλο ή τις σεξουαλικές προτιμήσεις”.
ΤΟ ΚΕΙΜΕΝΟ :
Heliodendro, Kastoria (Greece)
One of the biggest greek mink farms has been hit in our first night of action. All the cages imprisoning animals in 37 sheds of the farm were opened and machinery sabotaged. To let the animals out part of the fence was cut and both gates opened smashing the locks (using the farmer’s tools). Two hours and half of work and we could run away along with thousands of minks (according to media 50.000 were released).
27.08.2010 – Kaloneri, Siatista (Greece)
Another mink farm was our target for a second night of action, this time near the town of Kaloneri, on a road where 10 farms can be easily seen. 8 sheds full of animals had their cages opened in just ten minutes. Before leaving we opened a gate to let the animals run towards freedom (according to media 2.000 were released).
In both cases we had checked carefully the farms to know how to organize a faster and more secure action.
With these actions we decided to hit the fur industry and especially the disgusting ‘fur towns’ of Siatista and Kastoria, plagued with hundreds of fur stores. Liberating animals from cages is a way to put our ideas into practice. We oppose the oppression, exploitation and imprisonment that this civilization has created for any living being, regardless of species, race, gender or sexual preferences.
In these desperate days we still strive for freedom. Eat vegan on the barricades!
A.L.F.”
Greek media has reported that as many as 50,000 mink were released from cages. In an article in the Makedonia newspaper, the president of a Greek fur breeders association said that it was a “black day” for the industry. The owner of one of the targeted farms estimated his losses at 1 million Euros and said that his farm had been ruined.
