vandalized deer stand

One of the messages says “Hunt the hunters.”

To make matters worse, the A.L.F. was actually impressed with the vandalism.

“The North American Animal Liberation Press Office was very pleased to hear about the destruction of multiple hunting stands in Dunn County,” the A.L.F. said in a statement to Fox News. “It is an absurd idea that there is sport in lying in wait for an unsuspecting animal to stroll by and then blowing it away with a high-powered weapon.

If you see any suspicious activity, be sure to contact the Dunn County Sheriff’s Office or file an anonymous report at dunncrimestoppers.com.

However, it’d probably also be wise to stay vigilant in areas other than Wisconsin, too, as the A.L.F. certainly isn’t exclusive to any one state.
