Hello peeps 
I`m going to be petitioning the RSPCA and Royal mail with a view to Royal mail accepting snail packages in the UK. I figure Royal mail will fall back on RSPCA opinion straight away so I`ll be pushing for a change of policy there. I haven`t written the letter yet, or started collecting signitures, I`m just collecting opinion at the moment. Below is a list of animals that Royal mail will accept for postage...
Living creatures Bees, Leeches, Pupae and Chrysalides, Caterpillars, Lugworms, Rag worms, Earthworms, Maggots, Silkworms, Fish fry and Fish eggs, Mealworms, Crickets, certain Parasites and destroyers of Noxious Pests, and some other insects sent between recognised institutions are allowed. You must use boxes that protect both the creatures and Royal Mail staff from harm. Use First Class as the minimum service and clearly label the package as "URGENT - LIVING CREATURES".
If you have anything you would like added to the letter, please post your thoughts and opinions in this thread and I`ll read through your posts when I`m writting the letter. I have trouble getting into this forum, my computer doesn`t like it for some reason lol but I can get in now and then so I`ll pop in to see any comments. I`ll keep you informed as to what`s happening. I`m going to do everything I can to try and make this happen.
You can find me on Supersnails as Feebix or e mail me on herper@hotmail.co.uk Aye thenkyou D:
