It's important to note that the invoice that accompanies the box cannot be INSIDE the box. They specifically require it be attached to or accompany the shipment in a fashion that is easily accessible.

Well, as it applies to this thread, alligators cannot be shipped via UPS - per UPS policy.
They can, however, be shipped via the USPS, as long as they aren't over 20 inches in length.

At that size, I would think you would be restricted to the airlines, simply due to the packaging requirements of a crocodilian that size. NorthWest Airlines and Delta have been recommended for some time (though I don't know if NorthWest's policies have changed since their purchase by Delta). I did contact Southwest at one point - I'll have to see if I can locate my notes on those discussions. For some reason, I seem to recall them not being a reasonable option; but I don't know if that is related to their policies, the process, or something totally subjective like me getting irritated with somebody on the phone

I'm curious about another issue - will PM you.
