We acted against Timmel because he is a veterinarian in UC Berkeley's vivisection labs. We would have reduced the Audi to ashes; if not for the fact that tailing him prevented us from grabbing the instruments that would have set his sh*t aflame. But there's always tomorrow.
An animalrights activist has offered $30,000 to anyone who facilitates the freeing of primates, or the end of vivisection, at the University of Kansas, a place cited for numerous animal welfare violations. Tags: University of Kansas animal research vivisection primates.
I came across this 2005 book from the Society & Animals Journal titled Confronting Cruelty Moral Orthodoxy and the Challenge of the AnimalRights Movement. Readership: This book will be of interest to anyone who wishes to understand the animalrights movement in England, the United States and Australia.
A Pearson International Airport employee tipped off the British Union for the Abolition of Vivisection that a shipment of monkeys destined for Montreal was being held at the Toronto airport after arriving from China on Saturday. Under pressure from animalrights groups and the public, many airlines have banned the practice.

Free Speech may be a noble ideal, but perhaps we are better served by thinking of it not only as a right but also as a privilege. They certainly depict cruelty to animals, right? Or don't they because animals we use for food are not thought by the masses as victims of cruelty? What do you think?
Are people who work in slaughterhouses and who vivisect their fellow sentient beings evil? Do you use the idea of "evil" in your thinking and processing of animalrights and veganism? Is evil something you do but not who you are? Does evil imply you know better and you choose X anyway? Is evil an excuse we make for people?
It's one that's brought on, no doubt, by the acts of vandalism and intimidation of radical animal-rights groups, but I think it also serves to insulate the research community from any responsibility it might otherwise have to increase transparency and public engagement with the work. But that's now what happened. Or mute babies?
