Brb, getting my emotional support elephant.
Emotional support animals are a legitimately helpful thing in edge cases. But everybody abuses the policies just so they can fly with their stinky ass pets
Actually AFAIK most support animals aren't actually approved by any kind of real medical professionals but bogus websites that give out fraudulent licenses for them.
Are you including dogs in this? Soldiers and people with PTSD having support dogs is a fairly proven beneficial thing to have over drugs and the like.
yeah a fucking dog makes sense, they react to human emotion appropriately with little to no training but what good is a fucking squirrel?
That's not really relevant to what he said though. He's saying that most "support" animals are just regular pets without any medical approval. Actual support animals are there to, you guessed it, support the mental condition of the owner. Lets not compare that to a regular pet.
"Customers have attempted to fly with comfort turkeys, gliding possums known as sugar gliders, snakes, spiders and more,” Fucking SPIDERS?!
This is my emotional support tailless whip scorpion, his name is greg
can I pet him?
Health hazard above all else, what vet in their right mind vaccinate a fucking squirrel. Rabies ahoy.
my emotional support cane toad
Didnt this happen again but with a diffirent animal?
My emotional support blobfish doesn't play well at high altitudes, unfortunately. https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/242634/dca212a7-0b9f-4143-900c-9757d5a60456/image.png im just a blob - wat plane can i use
Happened previously with Emotional Support Peacock. And Delta Airlines banning Pitbulls as Emotional support animal.
Guess that is my plans to take my emotional support crayfish scuppered.
At least I can still bring my emotional support eagle, dispensing freedom wherever we go.
Squirrels don't carry rabies in any statistically significant amounts.

Emotional support snakes.... on a plane?
Better than alligators on a train.
Yeah, you have to start trying to kick in the cockpit door, then the emotional support Eagle appears
or komodo dragons on a wagon.
Wagon of Komodo Dragons sounds terryfing.
"Okay, so 2 tickets will be $510." "Oh, sorry, I didn't explain. This is my emotional support human, they fly for free."
off topic but squirrels carrying rabies is extremely rare, nearly impossible due to them dying to death from the attacks and the fact that they're very quick animals.
I honestly think people are doing it just to break the rules, just like guys with coal rollers.
I really do not understand emotional support animals. Then again, I have been raised under the view that animals should not be something that you get to show-off, but rather you take in the runts, downtrodden, and otherwise and try too give them a new chance at life. I understand if the emotional bond is beneficial to yourself and the animal, but just getting animals bred for certain things feels sorta wrong.
Didn't you post a thread about how a man killed a bear with a spear, indicating it was cool? Seems a bit weird to moralise about this when you posted that and had no complaints.
