Officials are warning residents to not approach the mink or try and grab them because they can get aggressive and bite.
Buddenberg, who spent two years in federal prison forin which he and a partner released mink from fur farms and vandalized equipment, said he had no confirmation yet of ALF’s involvement, though.
Mink are wild animals that roam up to 5 miles a day but are kept in 10-inch cages on fur farms, Buddenberg said, describing their treatment as “egregiously cruel and violent.” The mink, he said, are born in February or March and are killed in November for their fur, leading a “miserable existence” for eight to nine months. “At least now they have a fighting chance at life,” he said.Sunbury resident Cassie Marks, though, is not celebrating the escape. A pet groomer who also volunteers with a cat rescue organization, Marks has joined others in setting traps for the mink since Sunday night.
The escaped mink, she said, are domesticated and not native animals, and they do not have the muscle development to run like a wild animal so they can’t hunt or escape predators. So far, she said that more than a dozen mink have been killed by vehicles.She encouraged those against fur farming to speak out and convince family and friends to not buy mink coats or eyelashes rather than send clueless animals into the wild.Pennsylvania Game Commission Lt.
