‘Crate’ Expectations as postman discovers wild animals in his van
An elephant, rhino and polar bear were among the critters hiding in crates in the back of Postie Martin Melaugh’s van, on the way to their new homes. They were all part of a brand new batch of ‘adoption’ animals being sent out by wildlife charity Care for the Wild, based in Brighton Road.
Care for the Wild CEO Philip Mansbridge said: “We apologise for giving our postman a shock when he saw these crates! They do have a warning on them saying that they are wild animals in transit – but luckily there’s nothing dangerous in there!
