United Airlines bunny death mystery deepens as breeder demands the body back and airline say he was alive on board
Annette Edwards is fighting to get Simon's corpse returned from America for a post mortem
THE owner of the 3ft rabbit that died on a United Airlines jet demanded: “Where is his body?”
Annette Edwards, 65, is fighting to get Simon’s corpse returned from America for a post mortem.
But the mystery deepened as a spokesman for the airline claimed the continental giant rabbit was alive when taken off the plane.
He said Simon died at a holding facility at Chicago O’Hare airport.
Annette had been told the bunny was put in a freezer after he died during a flight from Heathrow.
The breeder, who was sending Simon to a US buyer, said: “Where is his body? I can’t get any answers. I want compensation. If I can get his body back I’ll have a vet examine him to get answers.”
United Airlines sparked outrage two weeks ago when security guards violently dragged a doctor off an overbooked flight.
