Protest Fur Farm Criminals at Guelph Courthouse

July 18, 2018 @ 9:00 am - 1:00 pm

A recent undercover investigation at this Guelph area fur farm by Last Chance for Animals has lead to 14 charges of animal cruelty against the owners. Mink were recorded with their heads rotting off, unsanitary living conditions, and other atrocities.

Join the End Fur Farming movement as we protest outside the Guelph Provincial Offenses Court at the fur farm owners first appearance. People are also welcome to attend the hearing inside if possible. Many folks are not aware that one of Ontario’s largest fur farms is so close to them. We intend to put a big spotlight these people who are breaking the law and torturing animals just a short distance away.

Signs will be provided but feel free to bring your own. Bring some noise makers too!

Note: The time of the event may change slightly as more information about the court hearing becomes available.
