Photo: petition against sending live animals by mail

Nowadays, you can have nearly everything shipped to you by mail. But who would have thought that this also means live animals in a cardboard box. It is hard to believe that this is legal, but you can actually send off live animals in a box and have them delivered to your mailbox, no food, no water included.

“At the post office [you could hear] the familiar sound of newly hatched chicks. They were calling out from inside a pair of cardboard boxes on the counter. No mama. No food. No water. Yes, the shipping of live, day-old baby chicks is a booming business in the States.”
