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!

The next global week of action has been called between Friday 27th of March and Friday 3rd of June, and during this week activists across the world will be taking action in a variety of ways to demand Air France-KLM stop transporting innocent animals to laboratories. But, will there be an action near YOU?

Air France-KLM provide a vital link in the vivisection chain by transporting animals from breeding farms on one side of the planet to laboratories on the other. If we are serious about ending animal experimentation then we must cut the supply of animals. The campaign can provide leaflets and posters, however only YOU can organise an event in your region for this important week of action!

Our societies have to pronounce on the unjustifiable character of meat consumption from an ethical viewpoint: it involves sacrificing the basic interests of innumerable sentient beings whereas eating meat is unnecessary.
The idea is to claim loud and clear that it is not only the duty of each individual to stop supporting the murderous exploitation required by the consumption of animal flesh and "by-products", but that it is also, therefore, the duty of societies as a whole to declare themselves in favor of the banning of farming, fishing and hunting.

It is a sad assessment that, despite the fact that the animals used for food represent almost all the animals exploited, they are extremely invisibilized.  It is up to us, activists, to make their lives and their miserable destiny visible and to present prospects for putting an end to their slaughtering.  It is up to us to proclaim that it is morally necessary to abolish the exploitation of animals used for their flesh.

Read copies of secretive newsletter: “Extremist Watch”, published for animal researchers and law enforcement. The publication prints intelligence on the animal rights movement, including activists home addresses, who is dating who, details about the personal lives of activists, and much more.

Read copies of secretive newsletter: “Extremist Watch”, published for animal researchers and law enforcement

Voice of the Voiceless has been leaked copies of a little-known PA-based newsletter for animal researchers called Extremist Watch. The publication prints intelligence on the animal rights movement, including activists home addresses, who is dating who, details about the personal lives of activists, and much more.

Little-seen outside of private animal researcher and law enforcement circles, I am making two issues of Extremist Watch available publicly for the first time.

Stop animal murder being perpetrated by animals.

We are at a point in time where we have access to the technology that will allow us to completely stop the senseless slaughter of animals. While the consumption of animal flesh by humans is bad enough, every day thousands of animals are killed and eaten by other animals. Animal on Animal murder supporters claim this is natural, but there is nothing natural about eating meat. Write your congress person and tell them to redirect money to fund research that will allow us to condition animals to become vegetarians, either through socialization or genetic manipulation. We can banish the class warfare of predator and prey.

Friends of Animals, an advocacy organization founded in 1957, is suing the U.S. National Park Service to stop a proposed deer-control plan for Valley Forge National Historical Park.

Philadelphia, PA — Friends of Animals, an advocacy organization founded in 1957, is suing the U.S. National Park Service to stop a proposed deer-control plan for Valley Forge National Historical Park.

Just a few minutes west of Philadelphia, Valley Forge Park is historically known as a six-month headquarters for George Washington during the Continental Army’s encampment in 1777. Today, it is known as a five-mile spot of peace and safety for animal life in the midst of suburban shopping malls and road works.

The perpetually shy White-tailed deer usually come into heat in November for a short 24-hour period. If conception hasn't taken place, a doe will go into heat again 28 days later. Mating occurs only from October to December - which means the sharp-shooters will be killing pregnant deer, in addition to others, for years.

AnaiRhoads.org -- There has been a battle going on for decades over whether or not to diminish certain animal populations through hunting. Whether they are vaunting birth control methods, snares or traps, or the direct shooting of free-living animals, governments and pro-hunting groups attempt to push aside the obvious problem: human encroachment.

The human population has doubled since the 1970s, and this influx of bodies has led to more homes, malls and highways being constructed on land where animals once lived. This encroachment has pushed, isolated, and even starved animals as they try to compete for space and food.

If dressing up like clan members, exploiting women in protests, investing in the animal industry, or euthanizing 80-97% of 'rescued' animals doesn't change your mind about PETA, the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, perhaps their recent lawsuit will get your attention.
