What happened in the mink farm accident?

The mink farm accident...I shall answer this to the best of my knowledge. Basically, what happened was there was a mink farm who were breeding minks and when the minks were full grown, they would kill and skin them for their furs. An animal rights protestor went to the farm and released all the minks but because the farm was in a place where minks weren't native to the country, when the minks were released, they went and killed so much wildlife, that it caused greater damage then the killing of those minks would have. So in a way, the idea wasn't that clever since animal rightists should be thinking if their form of protesting will actually help the environment or just make matters worse.
