liberator Rod Coronado proved this a decade ago. The “Mink Rehabilitation Project” led by convicted A.L.F. Lie #2: Mink are domestic and cannot survive in the wild” – Mink are in fact only one or two generation removed from their wild cousins and have not yet had their wild instincts bred out. While it is true a small number may be hit by cars, most will not, and if nothing else they have been given a chance a freedom. Every animal on the farm was bred to die. Lie #1: “The mink will be hit by cars” – The absurdity of this statement is that before liberation, death was 100% certain. These standard lies from the mouths of murderers will be preemptively rebutted here: The fur industry will be quick to respond to this beautiful act of compassion with baseless cookie-cutter form responses, in an attempt to discredit our actions and divert attention away from their sadistic industry. Ever cage was opened and 14,000 mink released to freedom. know from experience these conditions to be the industry standard. Any attempt by the fur industry to dismiss the Drewelow & Son’s Fur Farm as an isolated example should be considered a lie. Inside the sheds we found a horrific scene – thousands of mink crammed 2-3 to a tiny wire cage, waiting to die in a mess of waste and cobwebs. Handheld cutting tools were used to strip away two entire sides of the farm’s fencing, giving the mink an escape route. “The Animal Liberation Front is claiming responsibility for the largest liberation of animals in history – the release of 14,000 mink from the Earl Drewelow & Son’s Mink Farm, 2477 239th St, New Hampton IA during the early morning hours of September 7th, 2000. The action also came a week after 179 birds were liberated from a toxicology lab in Wellington, Colorado. The night after this raid, 215 pigeons were liberated from a vivisection breeder across the state, in Glenwood, Iowa. There is some evidence this farm remained open as of the mid-2000s, however there has not been any verifiable information as to the farm’s status in recent years. This action holds the record as the largest fur farm raid in US history.Īlthough ever cage at the farm was opened, and losses were estimated at over $400,000, all evidence is that the raid did not shut down this farm. In September 2001, the Animal Liberation Front broke all records, releasing 14,000 mink from the Drewelow & Son’s Mink Farm in New Hampton, Iowa.
