ALF
Activist group initials
ALF is an acronym for Animal Liberation Front, a decentralized network of activists who use illegal direct action—including property destruction, arson, and releasing animals from laboratories and farms—to oppose animal exploitation.
Members operate anonymously in small cells.
The FBI has classified ALF activities as domestic terrorism, though the movement disavows violence against humans.
