Sparrow was discovered 30 hours after he left Cape Town. He was left in the plane’s cargo hold without food or water.
“The matter is being reported to the international aviation travel authorities and relevant parties for investigation and compensation. Apparently, this is not the first case. Disgusting treatment and negligence cannot be swept under the carpet,” Glenda Pontes who had been keeping the dog in Cape Town said as quoted by the report.
