from the Bunny Alliance
The day of protests kicked off with a lunchtime demonstration and leafleting at a terminal of the San Francisco InternationalAirport. In the afternoon, Seattle-area activists held demonstrations at the entrance to Sea-Tac International Airport and then at Delta’s Sea-Tac cargo office, where a representative of The Bunny Alliance spoke with the office manager about what is being asked of Delta. In the evening, with support from Portland Animal Liberation, a group of fifteen activists held a demonstration at the Portland International Airport, where the activists talked with many supportive travelers who were concerned about Delta’s involvement in the international primate trade. The day concluded with a large nighttime demonstration at LAX, with help from Empty Cages Los Angeles. Delta’s LAX employees reportedly became so flustered by the demonstration that they disabled all five of the automatic doors of their terminal area, which forced their customers to wait outside in the cold.
These protests were part of The Bunny Alliance’s larger campaign against Delta that is demanding that the airline force its strategic partner Air France to follow the trend among other airlines and place a permanent ban on the transportation of all animals being shipped to vivisection labs across the world. Later this month, The Bunny Alliance will embark on a nationwide tour to hold demonstrations at Delta’s hub airports while they are busy with holiday travelers, as well as at Delta’s headquarters and other offices.
This holiday travel season, The Bunny Alliance and compassionate activists everywhere are holding Delta accountable and demanding that the airline take a stand against animal cruelty.
