Targets of the ALF and ELF include which of the following?

The correct choice highlights that the Animal Liberation Front (ALF) and the Earth Liberation Front (ELF) primarily focus on targets that are associated with ethical concerns regarding the treatment of animals and environmental destruction. Specifically, targets such as laboratories, facilities where animals are kept, vehicles, and construction sites are seen as direct contributors to practices these groups oppose—namely, animal testing and environmental degradation.

The reasoning behind targeting laboratories is linked to the belief that scientific research often involves unethical treatment of animals, which conflicts with the core values of the ALF. Similarly, the ELF targets practices that harm the environment, including construction that leads to habitat destruction, as well as vehicles that are associated with corporate practices contributing to environmental harm.

The other options reflect broader societal and economic criticisms but do not align as closely with the specific targets the ALF and ELF have typically chosen. While banks and wealthy individuals represent targets of anti-capitalist sentiment, the direct actions of ALF and ELF are more focused on tangible practices involving animals and the environment rather than abstract ideologies regarding class or capitalism. This distinction makes option C the most accurate representation of the activities and targets of the ALF and ELF.
