Animal Experiments in UK Up Slightly, But Still Far Below Highest Levels
Procedures involving non-human primates decline 12 percent in 2004 compared to 2003. Full Article
In interview with the Associated Press, animal rights extremist Peter Daniel Young said that although he faces up to two years in jail for breaking into fur farms, "I would do it all again."
Young, 28, told the Associated Press,
As bad as it could get [in prison], it will never be as bad as it was for those mink. I would do it all over again.
. . .
If saving thousands of [mink] lives makes a terrorist, then I certainly embrace the label. I would have been just as fast to act if those cages had been filled with human beings.
Young is scheduled to be sentenced November 8.
