Five days later, the "''[[Bay Area]] Cell of the Earth and Animal Liberation Front''" claimed the firebombing of the [[University of California]], an [[animal research]] laboratory that was still under construction at the time.<ref name = spl/> Also later that year, on November 29, there was another joint ALF & ELF claim, this time releasing 500 wild horses and torching the Bureau of Land Management in Burns,(state?) in protest of BLM's intention to round up the wild horses and process them for the sale of [[horsemeat]].<ref>Best & Nocella 2006 p. 56</ref><ref name = hist/>
 
However, this claim contradicts the [[Southern Poverty Law Center]], which states that the first incident of cooperation between the two movements was 6 months before these events on October 27, 1996, when the ALF & ELF were both responsible for firebombing a [[United States Forest Service|Forest Service]] truck in [[Detroit, Oregon]]. Then three days later both groups claimed the arson at the U.S. Forest Service Oakridge Ranger Station, at the cost of $5.3 million.
