In 2022, Camp Beagle released the first-ever undercover footage of the beagles inside the breeding sheds of MBR Acres. The images were captured using a tiny camera on a 6-meter-long pole guided from outside the fence through the vents of one of the sheds. They show the terrible conditions of the pens where the dogs are kept 24/7, as well as clear evidence of beagles displaying repetitive psychotic behavior generated by the lack of basic welfare standards.

In 2024, Camp Beagle released footage and photographs taken by a whistle-blower who worked at MBR in 2023. We edited the footage into four short films, each focussing on a different concern: the routine killing of puppies, the mothers used for breeding, the cycling of suffering from birth until they die at a toxicology laboratory, and the conditions in which the dogs are kept at MBR Acres.

A short film with the highlights of the drone footage that Camp Beagle has been capturing of the beagles when they are transferred from shed to shed or loaded into the back of vans to be taken to laboratories. This footage has been key to our exposure campaign against MBR Acres and for raising public awareness.

At the end of each screening, there will be time for Q&A.
