(詳細はAnimal Liberation Front (ALF) actions from 2000 to 2004. ==Background== ;ALF formed (詳細はRonnie Lee and Cliff Goodman had been charged for the raid on the Oxford Laboratory Animal Colonies in Bicester, UK, in 1974, as part of the Band of Mercy, the "Bicester Two" as they were known, emerged even more militant than before. There had been daily demonstrations at the court during their trial, including Lee's local Labour Party member of parliament, Ivor Clemitson. With the remaining activists from the Band of Mercy and another two dozen new willing activists, (30 in all), Lee formed the Animal Liberation Front upon his release in 1976.〔Monaghan, Rachael. "Terrorism in the Name of Animal Rights," in Taylor, Maxwell and Horgan, John. ''The Future of Terrorism''. Routledge 2000, pp. 160–161.〕 It was reported that in the first year alone, the ALF targeted; slaughterhouses, furriers, butchers shops, circuses, breeders and fast-food restaurants, causing damage in the UK that totaled £250,000.〔 The first raid occurred in the same year, with 1,000 foxes being released from Dalchonzie fur farm in Scotland.〔Mann, Keith. ''From Dusk 'til Dawn: An insider's view of the growth of the Animal Liberation Movement'', Summary of Dates, Puppy Pincher Press, 2007.〕 ;1980s and 1990s (詳細は1980s,〔 with notable raids including the removal of Silver Spring and Britches monkeys. ''Unnecessary Fuss'', a film by PETA with footage that the ALF stole, was also released which showed primate researchers laughing and joking at a baboon, as they inflict brain damage as part of a research project into head injuries caused by accidents.〔The video footage released by PETA can be viewed at (Unnecessary Fuss 1 ) (Unnecessary Fuss 2 ) (Unnecessary Fuss 3 ) (Unnecessary Fuss 4 ) (Unnecessary Fuss 5 ) (videos).〕〔McCarthy, Charles R. ("Reflections on the Organizational Locus of the Office for Protection from Research Risks" ), ''Online Ethics Centre for Engineering and Science'', October 28, 2004; accessed October 2, 2006: On the basis of ''Unnecessary Fuss'', PETA petitioned the Office for Protection from Research Risks (OPRR) to have the University of Pennsylvania's head injury lab closed down. The OPRR initially refused to act on the basis of the edited material and after more than a year of refusing to turn over the original tapes, PETA eventually did. The edited tape was found to have "grossly overstated the deficiencies in the Head Injury Clinic", but OPRR also found serious violations of accepted procedure.〕 The ALF continued into the 1990s, causing even more damage, with notable actions such as the jointly claimed ALF and Earth Liberation Front (ELF) arson at the US Forest Service Oakridge Ranger Station, which caused $5.3 million worth of damage. A series of raids also followed, which frequently targeted fur farms and animal laboratories and their breeding facilities,〔(Eco-Violence: The Record ), ''Southern Poverty Law Center'', Fall 2002.〕 including the Harlan Interfauna raid in Cambridge, by Barry Horne and Keith Mann.〔Mann, Keith.
