At Lion’s Farm in Wert County, northwest Ohio, vandals broke into the facility and released as many as 40,000 assorted minks to the wild Tuesday evening.<\/p>\n

Vandals released approximately 40,000 minks into the wild early Tuesday morning, freeing the animals from their cages at a farm in northwestern Ohio, according to authorities.<\/p>\n

The farm’s owner found a spray-painted message on the outside of one of the mink farm’s buildings which read, “ALF We’ll be back,” the owner told WANE 15, adding that they believe the Animal Liberation Front (ALF) was behind the break-in.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The bulk of the escapees have been rounded up (gotta wonder if tiny cowboys and little\u00a0 lassoes are used?) but there are still around 10,000 of these little\u00a0 ferret-sized carnivores AWOL. They are small enough to not be considered a major problem, but they are a hazard to outdoor poultry, pets, and small livestock.\u00a0 Apparently ALF neglected to notice that these are considered domesticated. and unable to survive in the wild.<\/p>\n

A plow was brought in to help clear the carcasses away after many minks were killed while crossing a nearby road, the Sheriff’s office said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Real act of kindness to set them free, huh? Reminds me of when Cleveland Amory’s anti-hunting group blocked a deer hunt a while back, causing deer herds to freeze and starve in a particularly harsh winter.<\/p>\n

Reports abound of other protests in which anti-oil activists are gluing their hands to roads, art exhibit walls, floors, etc. to protest man’s usage of petroleum products. We wrote a while back of VW’s solution: they calmly wished the Friday protesters “guten abend”, turned off the lights and heat, and left them glued in the building over the weekend.\u00a0 One would think a really strong quick pull would pull the protesters loose. Might be a little tough on their palms, but hey – they’re the ones ignoring that Super-Glue is a petroleum product.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
