THIS IS WHAT WE WERE TRYING TO STOP FROM HAPPENING. Several horses fell during this race - how many will be killed due to their injuries? Absolutely heartbreaking chaos for horses that never got a choice in the matter. MAKE SURE THE GRAND NATIONAL NEVER HAPPENS AGAIN. Sign our petition - this absolute disgrace of a "sport" should never, ever be allowed to continue. #AnimalJustice #CancelTheGrandNational

On Saturday we took peaceful action at the Grand National, to save lives and bring about a kinder world. In response we were brutalised by police and private security, we've experienced broken bones, dog bites and pepperspray. Is this what democracy looks like? However aggressive the police may become, we will remain non violent and undeterred because this is the right thing to do, and the best way to bring about societal change. Please donate to support our actions and incredible activists. Link in bio #GrandNational #PoliceBrutality #AnimalRights

We need as many animal lovers as possible to peacefully descend on Epsom next weekend. Be there and show your love not just for the horses endangered inside but for all life. Either: 1. Disrupt the race with us 🐎 OR 2. Come to Epsom For All, our alternative festival outside🏁

The panicked actions of these horses just before today's main race can bust the racing industry's myths better than we can: "They're just a bit excited." No. They're anxious and don't want to race. "They love to race." No. They love to run. Those are two different things. And in this case, many are running out of fear. Horses run naturally from fear of being left behind by the pack and attacked as prey. "They're trained for this." Really? Then why do they need to be controlled by excruciating metal mouth bits? These “equine athletes” did not get a choice in this matter, they never signed up for this or were informed of the risks. If instances like these, the bravery of Running Lion yesterday and White Birch today aren’t examples of individuals showing that they don’t want to do this, then what is? When will we listen to the horses when they tell us "NO"? We were not the only ones protesting today. These animals will continue to resist, and for as long as they do, we will stand up for all life. If, like us, you stand in solidarity with animals, then please join us at a Nonviolence Training and be part of this incredible community! #AnimalRising #AnimalLiberation #EndAnimalExploitation

!! BREAKING !! 25 supporters of Animal Rising have made it onto the track at the Scottish Grand National, to put their bodies in the way of harm, and protect animals. They're attempting to attach themselves to jumps and gates in order to cancel the big race. This afternoon 8 year old Oscar Elite died on the very same track. We take action today with them in our hearts. A horse dies every other day in racing in the UK. We are here to protect horses by saying NO to this barbaric 'sport.' There are plenty of other things we can have fun doing on a Saturday afternoon that don't involve watching animals come to harm. Last week at Aintree was just the beginning. The Summer of Animal Rising is upon us. Please donate to support actions like these: #CancelTheGrandNational #AnimalRising

🐎 Michelle and Alistair are on trial because they ran onto the Grand National racetrack to try to save horses’ lives. They are accused of public nuisance for trying to stop the race - but a horse is killed on average every other day on British racetracks. It’s time for this cruelty to end.

🚨BREAKING! Three supporters of Animal Rising were arrested in house raids the afternoon before the Greyhound Derby final. 🚨 The police have reached new levels of absurdity, including taking a seven-year-old’s tablet along with the entire family’s tech in a house raid. This is the same police force that shot and killed two innocent dogs at the beginning of May. This comes before supporters of Animal Rising even got within distance of Towcester Racecourse. Those arrested by the police were peaceful supporters who were trying to protect dogs. The increase in the suppression of dissent and peaceful protest is a threat to our democracy, and every day we see our democracy withering more and more. Despite these challenges, we will proceed with our intentions to disrupt the Greyhound Derby final tomorrow. The police have tried to stop us from protecting these greyhounds, but we will continue to put our bodies on the line to protect animals, and advocate for a better future FOR ALL LIFE. We need your help to create a kinder, freer, and safer world for both animals and humans. If you’d like to help support us, please consider donating to support those affected by raids and arrests (Link in bio). We are truly grateful for every donation made, and we thank you for your support. #GreyhoundDerby #GreyhoundRacing #AnimalRising

‼️⚠️BREAKING!!!⚠️‼️ Scottish supporters of Animal Rising gain access to the stage at the Royal Highland Show where the Golden Sheep Shearing World Championship is taking place! 3 individuals glued themselves to the gates behind which the sheep were kept, whilst others held posters detailing facts about the farming industry. In this competition, sheep are used for entertainment and sheered in under 60 seconds, causing stress and often injury. In the UK we have only 12% forest cover, while sheep grazing accounts for 16% of land use. Switching to a plant-based food system would allow us to free up vast amounts of land for rewilding and protection against the climate crisis. We need to drastically change our relationship with animals and the natural world and create a safe place for all life. Please join us in standing up for nature. Come to our zoom call on Wednesday at 7pm to find out how to get involved. (Link in Bio)

The Jockey Club spent £150,000 trying to silence this conversation, and they failed. Despite house raids, injunctions, facial recognition, someone still got on the track. And now everyone's talking about the ethics of horseracing and our broken relationship with animals.

'How can it be possible to justify a race which is purely for the pleasure of people, which risks the life of even one animal?' Thank you Dr. Brian May for your supportive posts containing such powerful words. We have had an overwhelming amount of public support off the back of this action which we are incredibly grateful for. People all over the country are talking about how we can fix our broken relationship with animals and the natural world by ending industries that cause harm and suffering to animals. If you too love animals and agree with our actions at Aintree last weekend, then sign our petition to help us to end the Grand National! You can also show your support by donating, and helping to make sure we are able to continue our mission towards a brighter future for all life. #GrandNational #AnimalRising #CancelTheGrandNational #AnimalRights #AnimalJustice #ForAllLife

‼️URGENT: SIGN PETITION TO SEND THE ESCAPED MILITARY HORSES TO A SANCTUARY‼️ Petition: We all are shocked by the images of the blood-covered horses, that were running through London today morning. This horrifying image is a clear display of how we treat animals in today's society. Animals in distress have been escaping from slaughterhouses, farms and this time from a military rehearsal. We have to do better. These horses have served their country through no choice of their own. Now, it is time for us to serve them. ‼️We are urgently calling for those horses to be sent to a sanctuary where they can live out the rest of their lives in peace‼️

🚨BREAKING: Biggest scandal in RSPCA history! 👉Go to to watch the full video and sign the petition! We have investigated over 40 RSPCA Assured farms in the last few months. We have seen thousands of animals living in overcrowded and filthy sheds, living and dying in pain from lack of care. The RSPCA is failing to protect millions of animals stuck in farms nationwide. They talk of 'improving the lives of farmed animals', but place their seal of approval on farms and practices which go against every standard they claim to endorse. #AnimalRising #ForAllLife #AnimalRights #AnimalLiberation #AnimalLover #RSPCAAssured #RSPCA #AnimalWelfare #AnimalRescue RSPCA Assured RSPCA (England & Wales)

We're living in disturbing times in the UK, with police oppression of our right to protest reaching new heights and extremes. But this is only all the more reason for us to continue in peaceful civil resistance - we can't stop now and let all of these social, animal and climate injustices slide on by unchallenged. We care too much about these things, and who can blame us? It's literally a matter of life and death, for humans and animals alike. We are the people, and we have a right to peacefully intervene and sound the alarm in times of crisis. So we will not be intimidated by these new laws - this is too important. Come to our joint Zoom call with Just Stop Oil and Republic, Wednesday at 7pm, to discuss how we can resist this new oppression and take back our democracy - link in bio to register. #AnimalRising #PoliceOppression #PublicOrderBill #AnimalJustice #ClimateJustice
