Exotic Pet Shipping Delivery—Welfare-Focused Transport For Exotic Pets

How Our Shipping & Delivery Works

At Supreme Exotic Animals, every shipment is planned around the animal’s
welfare, not just speed. From the moment a reservation is finalized through to arriving at the destination, our team coordinates veterinary clearance.
travel documentation, carrier booking, and delivery tracking to give you
confidence that your new companion will arrive safely.

Pickup Options

Primary Pickup: Greenville, Mississippi region: Most primates and small mammals are available for pickup by appointment after approval. Address provided after verification for biosecurity.

Bring an appropriate carrier if advised, a government ID, and permit copies if required by your state.

Transport Options

We coordinate with transport partners experienced with live exotic animals, not standard parcel carriers.

The process follows these steps:

1. Reservation & Legal Verification

Before any travel is booked, we confirm that receiving the animal in your
location is legal and that your setup meets the species’ basic welfare needs.
This includes verifying state and local regulations where applicable. We turn away approximately 40% of inquiries that do not meet these standards; this protects both the animal and you.

2. Final Health Clearance

Once payment is finalized, your animal receives a thorough final veterinary
examination to confirm it is healthy, stable, and fit for travel. This is
why the delivery process takes approximately 24–48 hours after payment
clears — we do not cut corners on health checks.

3. Travel Preparation

Your animal is:

Confirmed as microchipped (if not already done)
Placed in an approved, appropriately sized travel crate with ventilation,
absorbent bedding, and secure locking
Assessed for temperature-appropriate packaging (heat or cold protection
as needed for the season and route)
Documented with health records, vaccination history, and identification
that travel with the animal

4. Carrier Booking & Departure

We primarily use major airlines with dedicated pet cargo programs. Our
Preferred carriers have consistently safe records for animal transport.
Flights are selected to minimize layovers and transit stress — we do not
recommend multi-stop routes that unnecessarily extend travel time.

5. Tracking & Arrival

Once your shipment is booked, you receive tracking information and arrival
details. For air freight, the animal arrives at the cargo facility of the
airport closest to you — you (or your designated pickup person) collect the
animal there with the required documentation. For personal delivery, a
transport agent handles the final leg and delivers to your specified address.

Transport is not offered to states where ownership is prohibited (e.g., California, New York for primates) or where permits cannot be verified.

Crate & Welfare Standards

Appropriately sized crate per species age/size—allows standing, turning, lying
Absorbent bedding, ventilation openings not blocked
Food/water as suitable for duration per veterinary guidance (infant primates may require different protocol discussed individually)
No tranquilization without veterinary direction
Labeling: Live Animal, handle with care, orientation arrows

We do not offer sea transport as a generic claim—previous product templates listed “sea transport” generically. Real options are Air and Ground.

Weather Holds

For animal safety, we hold transport when

Origin, transit or destination temperature forecast exceeding 85°F (29°C) or below 35°F (1.7°C)
Severe weather warnings, airline embargoes
Additional holds for infant animals under 10 weeks

We will reschedule at no extra transport fee for weather holds initiated by us.

Health Certificate & Paperwork

For interstate transport, we provide:

Veterinary health certificate within 10 days of transport where required
Vaccination and microchip records
Species transport documentation

International export requires CITES permits, import permits, and extended quarantine—we evaluate case by case and only work with licensed exporters. Many international inquiries cannot be fulfilled due to CITES Appendix I restrictions (e.g., chimpanzee).

Cost

Transport cost is separate from animal reservation. Varies by distance, crate, and mode. Quote provided after application approval and location verification.

FAQ

Do you ship to Texas, Florida, Ohio, Tennessee?
Yes, if ownership is legal in your county/city and permits verified. These are common inquiries. We coordinate transport accordingly.

Can you ship a capybara?
Capybara ground transport requires specialized large crate and climate control. Possible within legal regions, evaluated individually for welfare.

How long does shipping take?
Typically 1-3 days after payment received and approval completed, plus weather hold if needed. Quote includes transit estimate.

What if animal arrives stressed?
Mild stress and reduced appetite first 24-48 hours can be normal. Provide quiet, warm, enriched space per care guide, maintain transition diet, contact us and your exotic vet if symptoms persist beyond 48 hours.

Air FREIGHT.

This option is the most popular.

We primarily use American Airlines, WestJet and Delta Airlines. All our pet are shipped in a travel crate of medium size that is ideal for approximately the first 6 months of crate training. All monkeys that are shipped will be microchipped before shipping. Our pets are very well taken care of during the shipping process, and We have never incurred any shipping problems through these companies. We try to ship with American and Delta airlines but will utilize United and Alaskan airlines when needed. If it is necessary to ship with United Airlines or Alaskan Airlines the price will be higher. All prices can vary with locations and time.

The Air Cargo option will require your pet to be picked up at the international airport closest to you. Although the flights can be arranged as multiple stop flights, we do not recommend this way of shipping as it puts too much stress and fatigue to the pet

The Air Cargo has a space specially designated just for pets and also a place for birds. Therefore, it is safe and comfortable (air conditioned) for your new pet. For many years, ‘Next Day Primates’ worked with Air Cargo and we have never experienced any accidents. All pets were delivered promptly.

When all payments are finalized, the flight will be booked or if the shipping terms are free to you the buyer, an agent from the Cargo will contact you via telephone or email to confirm the flight. The agent will also inform you with the time and date of the arrival of your pet.

Should you decide to have your pet shipped, we will need the following information from you:

1. Full name, address, and phone number of the person picking the monkey up at the airport.

2. Two closest airports to you. We ask for two because sometimes we cannot get into your first choice airport. We always like to have back-up airports ready just in case we need to use them.

The final step is to simply pick up your pet from the closest assigned airport.

A customer will receive the pet within 2-3 days from the date the payment is finalized.

Second option is personal deliver.

An experienced pet expert will fly with the pet Or You can either pick your pet up by yourself!!

This service can be booked for the pet to be delivered to any location. We will personally deliver the pet to your door at your request. This option will require extra charges depending on the destination and it may take a few more hours to a day to receive your pet.

NOTE: Payments

1/3 of the actual payment is done upfront
The balance can be completed upon delivery

* Deposit is Refundable and Transferable.

Why does the delivery process take about 24 hrs?–

Once the payment is made, the monkey will need to get a thorough final vet check to make sure the monkey is safe to fly.
