HELP MAKE SHIPPING THRU UPS AND USPS LEGAL!!!

zoolady Feb 28, 2004 01:13 AM

Just sign this petition to help make shipping thru UPS and USPS legal.
Help save so many lives that have been lost because people felt they had to SNEAK an animal thru UPS or USPS just because they dont allow it.
And SAVE on HIGH shipping expenses for those of us doing it legally!!

according to UPS you can in fact ship live animals:

"j) UPS does not regularly provide service for packages containing live animals. (The term "animal" as used here refers to anything living, except plants.) UPS will only accept packages containing live animals for shipment within the United States on an exception basis. Transportation for packages containing live animals is limited, must be prearranged, and as with all other packages, will be provided only according to the terms and conditions contained in the UPS Tariff."

The US posatl service does permit shipping of small reptiles with the exception of snakes and turtles.
