Open rescue XXXVII (November 2017) & Support Walter Bond

A rabbit mom gives birth eight times every year. She does not want to but she has to. Each time there will be 7-10 little rabbits. After 78-82 days they are declared mature nough for the slaughter and they will be killed.

We took one mom and her ten kids from such a place. We drove them to the safety. To people who won´t kill them.

Thanks to those who offered their homes.

Open rescue XXXV (October 2017) & Support Lucy a Ethel

Rain and mud. I dropped Lukas and our anonymous friend close to poultry farm and I drove on to park at suitable place which was about three kilometers from there. After that I went to them.

The anonymous friend stayed out as a guard and we went for the hens. What could I writte? Over and over, still the same.

Open rescue XXXIV (October 2017)

We were here three weeks ago. The shed we got in the last time was empty. We weren‘t able to enter the next one. At first there were problems with the opening, then we retreated because of a guards visitor and then again when he went for his rounds. We are back today but there is only few of us.

Open rescue XXXIII (July 2017)

My friend told me that she lives in a flat with a huge terrace and that she could give a home to a duck or a chicken as her flatmate. So we went out for one chick.

It was a clear night. We slowly waded through the wet grass to the grounds. In twenty halls there were tens of thousands of imprisoned birds.

Open rescue XXXI (April 2017) & Support Joseph Buddenberg a Nicole Kissane

During Easter we went for a couple of plucked hens. One anonymous girlfriend layed down in the grass nearby gatehouse of the poultry house and patrolled the guard. I went with Lukas to the grounds. There was several dead hens in front of one hall. Lukas stayed outside the hall and I went in. There was only silence and vacuity. All hens were taken to the slaughterhouse because of holidays. We were late by two or three days.

Open rescue XXX (November 2016) & Support Lukáš Borlík

It’ raining, we are cold and tired. We can’t contact one of the patrols. There is only a noise heard from the radio transmitter. We have lost nearly half an hour by solving this situation.

Once everything’s all right and all patrols are contacted, me and Lukáš Krása climb the fence and go to one of the halls. We go fast, but calmly.

Open rescue XXVIII (July 2016) & Support Osman Evcan

A cold night, rain and thundering far away. Totally wet sitting nearby the enclosure and waiting until the patrol comes.

It’s safe. We can go.

We know this place, so the rescue is done quickly.

We have took four chickens and going away. Four chickens whose world was changed in a few minutes.

Open rescue XXVII (May 2016) & Support Martin Ignačák

Part of our reascue team got out of the car near the location. With bags and tools they disappear into dark.

I´m driving with a friend to park the car maybe 3 km away. Later on we slowly go back to the place where the rest of us is waiting. Two people on the night walk, hand in hand like a couple - less noticable then a group of four or five.

Watchmen go to their locations. When they give us go, we jump over the fence.

How are the rescued ducks doing

I got a message about ducks liberated during the XXVth rescue. What is their life like after two months and what it did to the guy who is caring for them. He had no previous duck experience. Just a space that he made into a home. I thank him and everyone else who gave homes. (MK)

Open rescue XXVI (March 2016) & Support Keith Mann

Few halls, gatehouse and old Škoda in front of it. Few halls and 180 000 pullets inside. So many crippled lives.

The night is dark and chilly. Sentry gives us a go. We follow the fence. Slowly, quietly.

Open rescue XXV. (January 2016)

One chilly night we climbed over a wall of one of many concentration camps. It consists of a slaughterhouse and several sheds with animals. Few steps, little bit of time at the door and we are in one of those sheds. Stench, dirty birds with clipped wings, living among dead and dead among living. Grief, anger and despair. We take four of them with us, the rest stays behind. Four of them are safe, they will run on grass, enjoy fresh air and no one is going to cut their throats.

We saved four of them, the rest stays behind.

Open rescue XXIV. (January 2014)

We saved 8 battery hens lives. They are not going to die in a cage, neither in a slaughterhouse. We took them away to the temporary place and afterwards we brought them to their new home.

Now they can stretch their wings and can run. Instead of artificial lighting they can see the real sun. Fresh air instead of ventilators. Weakers can get away from strongers.

Open rescue XXIII (October 2012)

12 hens were rescued from unneccessary suffering and violent killing. They were transported to a new, safe home where they will live in the grass, sun and fresh air. They will be able to spread their wings and run, and the weaker ones will have the possibility to escape the stronger ones. Send it further.
