Water dis­pensers were sliced and com­bined with feed hop­pers to soil the grain, barbed wire fences were cut, and a near­by fox trap was chopped to pieces. How­ev­er tonight was­n’t about caus­ing eco­nom­ic loss. It was about lib­er­at­ing inno­cent lives.…. AND caus­ing eco­nom­ic loss!

Work­ers liv­ing on the site in a por­ta­cab­in and car­a­van with dogs bark­ing through the night did­n’t deter us. We locat­ed an inten­sive breed­er shed, crammed sol­id with hun­dreds of young Par­tridges. Out­side was a run where the birds could leave the dusty shed to walk through inch­es of their own excre­ment and see the out­side world through metres of wire mesh and net­ting. Not any more! A few hours with us there and the runs were in pieces, hav­ing removed the roof net­ting and rip­ping side pan­els down. Thou­sands of birds were herd­ed from the units and were last seen fly­ing off into the skies, back into the wild where they should be.

These ‘peo­ple’ are fair­ly thick types so in case it was­n’t clear who had been we left a few mes­sages around the place. ‘LOST SOMETHING?’ adorns the side of his now emp­ty breed­ing unit, along with ‘FUCK SHOOTING’.

ANIMAL LIBERATION NOW — what are you wait­ing for?
