"Our celebration of the New Year was something
different from the normal thing. A few hours after the year
began, we were in the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at
the Independent University of Madrid, about 400 meters
from Moncloa, where Spanish politicians were enjoying
a celebration in the palace. But we had better things
to do. In the animal facility, we found 28 beagles in
cages, destined to be killed by university
vivisectors.

We broke the padlock, opened the door and one by one
we rescued them all. Four minutes after having broken
the padlock, we were already on our way.

Among those that we removed were puppies of little
more than a month old, and another litter had been born
that same night. These last puppies did not have much
luck, the night was very cold and they had been caged
outside; in addition the hygienic conditions were poor.
These puppies had been born on a layer of excrement
and rust, on a ground of cold cement with an outside
temperature of 2ºC. When we arrived at the cage one of
the six puppies was already dead, the rest were taken
directly to a veterinarian. Unfortunately the efforts
of the veterinarian and the mother were not sufficient
and three did not survive.

Of the 28 beagles that we rescued, we recently
discovered that one of the females is pregnant. The
veterinarian did an ultrasound and told us that there will be 5
or 6 puppies soon. These puppies will be born and
live in an environment of affection and happiness, and
will never know what a laboratory is.

This action we want to dedicate to William C. Rogers,
"Avalon". A companion who recently "appeared" dead in
his cell with a bag over his head.

Original Spanish communique:

"Nuestra celebracion del dia de ano nuevo fue algo
distinta a lo normal. Pocas horas despues de empezar el
ano nos encontrabamos en la Facultad de Veterinaria de
la Universidad Autonoma de Madrid, a unos 400 metros
de la Moncloa, donde los principales políticos
espanoles estaban disfrutando de una fiesta en el palacio.
Pero nosotros teniamos cosas mejores que hacer en ese
lugar. En el animalario de la facultad habia enjaulados
28 perros beagle de todos los tamanos para ser
asesinados por los vivisectores de la universidad.

Rompimos el candado, abrimos la puerta y uno a uno los
fuimos rescatando a todos. Cuatro minutos despues de
haber roto el candado ya nos estabamos yendo.

De entre los que sacamos habia cachorros de poco mas
de un mes y otra camada habia nacido esa misma noche.
Estos ultimos cachorros no tuvieron tanta suerte, la
noche habia sido muy fria y los tenian enjaulados en el
exterior, ademas las condiciones higienicas eran
penosas. Estos cachorros habían nacido sobre una capa de
excrementos y orines en un suelo de frio cemento con
una temperatura exterior de unos 2ºC. Cuando llegamos a
su jaula uno de los seis cachorros ya estaba muerto,
el resto fue conducido directamente al veterinario.
Desgraciadamente los esfuerzos del veterinario y de la
madre no fueron suficientes y tres no conisguieron
sobrevivir.

Pero ahora tenemos otra historia que contar. De entre
los 28 beagles que rescatamos, recientemente hemos
descubierto que una de las hembras esta embarazada. El
veterinario le ha hecho ecografias y ha visto en su
interior entre 5 y 6 cachorros esperando su momento para
salir. Estos cachorros naceran y viviran en un ambiente
de carino y felicidad, nunca sabran lo que es un
laboratorio ni lo que unos enfermos pueden llegar a hacer
con nuestros hermanos animales.

Esta accion queremos dedicarsela a William C. Rogers,
"Avalon". Un companero que recientemente "aparecio"
muerto en su celda con una bolsa en la cabeza.

F.L.A."
