** Dear John,
------------------------------------------------------------

Millbank Fur Farm, a mink fur farm in Ontario, Canada, has pled guilty to section 11.1(1) of the Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act ([link removed]) and been ordered to pay a monetary penalty as a result of Last Chance for Animals' undercover investigation ([link removed]) based complaint against the facility.

LCA applauds the Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (OSPCA) and Crown Attorney for pursuing justice against Millbank Fur Farm.

“Although this doesn’t stop the suffering the minks were forced to endure, it sends a clear message to the fur industry: the systemic animal abuse that runs rampant throughout the industry is unacceptable and will not be tolerated by a civilized society,” said Chris DeRose, LCA Founder and President. “There is no excuse to kill animals for the sake of fashion and LCA will not stop until this horrific industry is shut down for good.”

This development is an important reminder of the importance of whistleblowers and transparency in animal agriculture. This is the kind of thing that ag-gag laws like Ontario’s recently passed Security from Trespass and Protecting Food Safety Act will make more difficult.

LCA's investigation ([link removed]) , ([link removed]) released in 2018, exposed numerous incidents of animal suffering and neglect among the 40,000 mink farmed annually at Millbank Fur Farms. The investigation documented minks left to suffer without proper veterinary care along with inadequate, unsanitary mink shelters and spoiled food.

Although LCA is an abolitionist organization that would like to see an end to the fur industry, recognizing the suffering of animals abused for fur and setting legal precedents are a step in the right direction towards creating a more compassionate society.
