USPS News: Mail Service News Release
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
September 28, 2001
Live animal transport
In response to new Federal Aviation Administration restrictions, the
Postal
Service is adjusting the service it provides for the transportation
of live
animals.
The Postal Service will continue to accept live animals that do not
require
delivery within a 72-hour period, such as earthworms, lizards, snails,
crickets, grasshoppers, and bees, which can move on ground
transportation.
Also, the Postal Service will continue to accept live animals for
which the
postage is $3.50 or less for shipment using air transportation.
The Postal Service will provide limited service for live animals for
which
the postage is more than $3.50 and that require air transportation,
such as
day-old poultry, adult poultry and queen honeybees. This service will
be
available to and from the airports listed below. The customer must
present
the mail to the AMC/AMF no later than the time listed below. All
