"But if they cannot consistently deliver on time, they should put more efforts into not shipping animals UNTIL they do get organized."

that one is easy - from what I understand, DHL no longer accepts live animals...by policy, if not practice. FedEx is the only shipper that openly accepts snakes. UPS accepts from some, not others - I still have not gotten a clear explanation of this one...but their policy clearly states no snakes. the BIG problem is that the employees of these companies don't know, or disregard, the current policies. I have heard from several people that DHL is the only shipper that will accept from them (UPS and FedEx refuse on the basis that they ship snakes). at various times over the past year, I have had both UPS and FedEx refuse to ship for me because the contents (snakes)were disclosed. almost enough to make me go back to delta
