Simon gets a lot of press in the UK, and it appears to be a fact that it died travelling on a United Airlines plane, despite the headline…
“A black duck with an offhand, yet excitable manner and a lisp, as well as a pudgy bald man, wearing a hunting cap are said to be persons of interest in the ongoing investigation. Caution is urged as the man is said to be armed with a shotgun.”
“The safety and wellbeing of all the animals that travel with us is of the utmost importance to United Airlines and our PetSafe team,” the airline said.
At this point of time in history, totally believable.
One of the clues that the rabbit had died in transit appeared to be its frozen, field-dressed carcass wrapped in white butcher paper emblazoned with the United logo along with a tell-tale fricassee recipe, according to investigators.
