Anonymous For The Voiceless Mexico Demonstrates In Mexico City's Historic Centre

A member of the international organisation Anonymous for the Voiceless wears a Guy Fawkes mask while demonstrating in the streets of Mexico City's Historic Centre to inform passers-by about the cruelty, mistreatment and exploitation of a wide range of non-human animals in slaughterhouses in Mexico and around the world. The protest is in rejection of Italian authorities after they ordered the slaughter of 10 pigs from the Progetto Cuori Liberi sanctuary for suspected swine flu. It should be noted that the pigs killed were not intended for consumption, as the sanctuary's mission is to rescue farm animals and heal the wounds inflicted on them by the meat industry. In response, activists from various animal rights associations who were on the scene were beaten and detained by police. (Photo by Gerardo Vieyra/NurPhoto)
