A.L.F. RESCUE HUNDREDS OF CHICKENS

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
March 20, 2001

Beaumont, CA - The underground Animal Liberation Front rescued 468 chickens from an egg factory farm in the early morning hours of March 17th. This is the second time the company, Sunny-Cal Eggs, has been targeted by the ALF.

Last June over six hundred baby chicks were liberated from Sunny-Cal and placed in a sanctuary. The ALF videotaped that raid which depicted activists placing chicks into carriers, and showed the horrendous conditions these animals live their short lives in.

The Animal Liberation Front is an international underground movement of people who take non-violent direct action against animal abuse industries. These actions include liberating animals and property destruction. The ALF adhere to a strict code of non-violence which states that no injury or death must come to any animal or human in the course of the action. In the twenty years of ALF activity in North America this guideline has never been breached.

The North American ALF Press Office is run independently and separately from the ALF, and is not a participant in illegal activities. The Press Office receives and forwards information from the underground activists.

Interviews are available from the contact number above. Video tape of the ALF action against Sunny-Cal last June is also available to media.

The full text of the Sunny-Cal Communique is as follows:

"In the early morning hours of March 17, 2001, members of the ALF liberated 468 young chickens from Sunny-Cal Eggs in Beaumont, CA. These animals will be placed in good homes where they will never be crammed into a cage, and forced to stay awake all hours to produce more eggs (more profits). This is the second time this farm was raided -- last June, 613 baby chicks were liberated, and video footage of the horrendous conditions on this farm was released. -ALF"
