information about organisations that endeavour to stop cruelity towards animal
Organizations / Groups:
Americans for Medical Advancement (AFMA):
An American organization founded by Drs Ray and Jean Greek. The organization appears to exist only to give credibility to its President and Spokesman, Ray Greek (see individuals).
Animal Justice Project:
A grassroots animal rights group based in the UK, but with activities in Europe and the US. They were founded in March 2015 by Julia Orr and Claire Palmer. They use a strong social media presence to get their message across, as well as more traditional press releases which distort current research. They focus on a strategy of Freedom-of-Information requests followed by local press releases and PR stunts.

Animal Liberation Front (ALF):
A global front group (or “brand”) used by individuals wishing to take so-called “direct action” in the name of animal rights. The ALF was founded in 1976 by British activist, Ronnie Lee. The BiteBack website, run by activists, reports around 20-40 incidents per month committed under the ALF banner. The usual ALF mouthpiece in America is the North American Animal Liberation Press Office (see below).

AVC’s main focus is the use of primates in research institutions – including universities – funded by the UK Government. It was formerly headed by convicted activist, Luke Steele (see individuals). The group no longer appears to be active in the UK.
