In the US right now, it might die in the mail. They've lost a lot of baby chicks, and frozen steaks that took too long to deliver.

It's actually been illegal to get mail order capuchin monkeys through the US mail since the 1960's, maybe? But boy, it totally did happen. You could order them from old comics.

Back in the 50s we ordered baby chickens. So did lots of people. Go to the post office on the day they came in, and all you could hear was baby chicks peeping. You can still fo that, but since Louis DeJoy was appointed Postmaster General, it's not a good idea anymore.
