KAYSVILLE - Three Utah members of the Animal Liberation Front claimed credit Monday for breaking into a Kaysville farm early Sunday, destroying property and releasing thousands of minks.
A statement posted on the ALF Web site states that the group entered the farm, released the minks and destroyed all breeding records. It states that they destroyed an electrical fence, vandalized trucks and equipment and cut about 100 holes in the perimeter fence.
Juan Becerra, spokesman for the the FBI's Salt Lake City office, said his bureau was assisting local detectives, but that it was too early in the investigation to speculate on "subjects or suspects" involved.
The FBI and Kaysville police began conducting interviews into the break-in but have not identified any group or person involved, they said. The Davis County Sheriff's Office is handling animal control.
Kaysville Capt. Paul Miya said Monday afternoon that there were no suspects whatsoever. After hearing of the news release, he said, "It's something we'll look into, but I don't give [ALF] a lot of credit for what they say."
Lt. Brad Wilcox with the Davis County Sheriff's Office said all but about 500 of the 6,000 minks released from Lodder Fur Farm had been recovered by Monday. About 500 of the minks died of heat exhaustion.

These folks are no different than Islamic terrorists..
Free the minks...kill the babies!
These folks are no different than Islamic terrorists..
If you think they really care about the minks, I've got a bridge to sell you.
This is all about them, their drug-induced comic-book mentality and the "rush."
That they care nothing for rules, or even human life goes without saying.
Domestic terrorists is about the most accurate name we can give them.
"Losers" comes in a close second.
In any case, serious jail time is not too much to expect
Liberalism is a mental disorder!
ALF = AKF (Animal Killer Front)
Say goodbye to all the small native animals. Releasing all those hungry predators on them should upset the ol’ eco-balance real nice, yup...
This is a violent attack on our agricultural infrastructure by terrorists.
It is violent economic sabotage against the United States of America.
Patriot Act, RICO, and state & local laws should be applied if these terrorists are captured alive.
...the vast majority of which will die gruesomely horrible deaths in the wild.
Does this mean he's given up on eating cats?
Why don’t they do something worthwhile, like tear up abortion clinics?
This kind of f#ck up happens all the time with animal rights nuts doing this kind of thing. They wind up hurting or killing a bunch of the animals they want to free.
In many cases the animals are domesticated and have no survival skills, or are released into an inhospitable environment they aren’t designed to live in.
Their own stupidity makes them very, very dangerous and shows they are not concerned about the real welfare of the animals.
Most love abortion. Too many people her already messing up the environment nad exploiting animals.
These people have websites.
SOMEONE is paying for them.
Arrest that person and charge them. Use RICO.
Arrest anyone who has even the most peripheral association with this group under RICO and throw the book at them..
Someone will eventually roll on the actual perps.
Hey, it works against the mob.
