Easter Bunny Demo
at Highgate Rabbit Breeder

In July activists occupied land near the entrance of Highgate Rabbit Farm in protest against their breeding of rabbits and ferrets for the vivisection industry. They supply several university and commercial laboratories, including Huntingdon Life Sciences (HLS). The campers held a peaceful occupation of the land, calling on the closure of the farm, and for the farmer Geoffrey Douglas to hand the animals over to a suitable organisation for rehoming.

There are other ways you can support the action:

• You can telephone the farm to politely request that they resist government or corporate pressure to continue supplying animals to vivisection, on: 01673 878259 and 01673 878 232.

• You can attend the protest - whether it is for an hour, or on your initiative on another a day, your presence would be greatly appreciated.

* You can write to Highgate Farm, Highgate Lane, Normanby By Spital, Market Rasen, Lincolnshire, LN8 2HQ.

Please keep all communications to the farm informative and polite. The purpose of your correspondence is to urge them to stop breeding animals for vivisection, and to allow the animals to be re-homed.

Whenever possible Veggies feature the publications of the Movement for Compassionate Living, which we print and distribute to promote simple living and vegan self-reliance as a remedy to the exploitation of humans, animals and the Earth. We also support our nominated charity, Vegfam, ‘Feeding the hungry without exploiting animals’. If you can help us with either of these projects at this event, whilst we are busy with Veggies catering, please email pat@veggies.org.uk.
