The C-130 probably wouldn't meet animal transportation welfare standards anyway.....

No slur intended, but whereas humans can wear ear defenders and know what to expect, a small animal subjected to the noise and vibration of travelling in the back of Albert would undoubtedly suffer a lot of stress.

But at least they'd be better off than if they'd travelled in a Nimrod - they'd doubtless have ended up in the Honkers Stew......
