Giant Hare Dies on Plane Flight to Chicago O'Rabbit Airport

...I think I might have mixed up the thread title a little.

United Airlines has taken another blow to its image after a giant, apparently healthy rabbit died following a intercontinental flight.

The bunny was found dead at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport...

that was sad...i never understand why people dont realize cargo holds are dangerous and deadly to pets...the temps vary so much and the airport handlers dont give a fuck

"United officials are insistent that the blows found on the rabbit were self-inflicted."

that is so not funny......and i cant stop laughing

I guess this proves that rabbit feet aren't lucky...this guy had 4 of them.

That's one huge, honkin' rabbit!

 

[strollingbones]

That's one huge, honkin' rabbit!

And now it is one huge, honkin' rabbit carcass.

Who knows how healthy it was, giant breeds have short lifespans. It could have been a United fuckup but after flying my dogs across country and back I'd never consider it again unless the airline has cabin accommodations and I could be with them. Otherwise they are baggage down below, that has to be very stressful.

They usually give dogs a mild sedative before flying and they sleep right through the flight. Dont know how well that would work on longer flights though.

It wasn't offered to me and no way in hell would I let some airport drone drug my pet anyway.

You give the dog the sedative when you check him.

Knock them out for 11 hours? WTF. They wouldn't be waking up.

I stated that I dont know how they'd handle long flights.
In other words they couldnt give the dog a sedative that would put them out for long flights.

I don't know why you're trying to create an argument. I am not knocking my dogs out for a coast to coast flight with 3 hour early checkins and another hour to pick up. I said I won't do it again unless they can be in the cabin with me. There's no argument to be had. My opinion on how to run my affairs is final.
