A Spain-based vegan activist group is defending allegations they caused the death of nearly 100 rabbits during a ‘rescue mission’.
The group made headlines this week when farmers reported some of the 16 ‘rescued’ rabbits were pregnant or lactating - meaning an estimated 90 offspring died following the theft.
A translation of a report from La Vanguardia indicated that the stress of the incident caused even more deaths, as bunnies suffered from ruptured spines and miscarried their unborn baby bunnies.
An activist from the group, who goes by the name Mythical Mia on social media, is denying all claims and says she will not stop being an activist.
