Ontario Provincial Police have reported that approx. 300 mink were freed from cages at a fur farm in Guelph/Eramosa Township, Ontario overnight July 30-31. The farm is not identified, but may be the Millbank Fur Farm (5225 Jones Baseline Road).

This is the third fur farm raid in southern Ontario in recent months. In early July, close to 7,000 mink were released from cages at a farm in St. Marys. At the end of May, 1,500+ mink were freed at another St. Marys fur farm.

THOUSANDS OF MINK RELEASED FROM CAGES AT FUR FARM

According to media reports, as many as 6,800 mink were freed from cages at the R.B.R. Fur Farm (2230 Glass Street) in St. Marys, Ontario late on July 7. Openings were also cut in a perimeter fence. Animal activists are suspected of being responsible.

The farm is a few minutes away from a different fur farm that was raided in May.
