Airline travel with pets just got more complicated, perhaps with good
reason.
 
From http://abcnews.go.com/sections/travel/DailyNews/PetBan000601.html
 
"With new federal rules requiring airlines to disclose the number of
animals killed or injured on flights, major carriers are refusing to
allow pets to be checked as baggage because of dangerous heat in cramped
cargo holds."
 
And if "...more than 2,500 cases of dogs and cats severely affected by
extreme temperatures in cargo holds over a five-year span, with 108
deaths", I shutter to think what would happen to ferrets kept in the
cargo hold.
