A Canada-bound flight from Tel Aviv diverted to Germany because the pilot believed that a four-legged passenger in the cargo hold might be in danger.
According to ABC News, an Air Canada spokesman said that there was a temperature issue in the cargo hold:
"Air Canada's pilots are professionals who are responsible for the entire flight. As soon as the crew became aware of the temperature issue, the captain grew rightfully concerned for the dog's comfort and well-being," Air Canada spokesman Peter Fitzpatrick said.
The plane diverted to Frankfurt and a 7-year-old French bulldog named Simba was transferred to a different Air Canada flight.
