Rodney Adam Coronado (born July 3, 1966) is an American animal rights and environmental activist known for his militant direct actions in the late 1980s and 1990s. As part of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, he sank two whaling ships and destroyed Iceland's sole whale-processing facility in 1986. He led the Animal Liberation Front's Operation Bite Back campaign against the fur industry and its supporting institutions in the early 1990s, which was involved in multiple firebombings. Following an attack on a Michigan State University mink research center in early 1992, Coronado was jailed for nearly five years. He later admitted to being the sole perpetrator. The 1992 federal Animal Enterprise Protection Act was created in response to his actions. The operation continued with a focus on liberating animals rather than property destruction. Coronado also worked with Earth First.

The Animal Liberation Front (A.L.F.) is a clandestine movement of animal rights activists who work outside the law to rescue animals from abuse. Founded in Great Britain in the mid-1970s, the ALF a loosely organized movement of (mostly vegan) activists who break laws and risk prison to liberate animals. The ALF in North America became active in the 1980s. Considered heroes by many, and "ecoterrorists" by others, the tactics of the Animal Liberation Front range from arson to break-ins at laboratories, to fur farm raids, and beyond. The A.L.F. has carried out more than 1,000 actions since its inception and freed hundreds of thousands of animals.
