The sisters threw the animal and cage in the trash and returned to their seats crying Tuesday after AirTran Airways employees on the jetway
said they couldn't care for the turtle while their father drove to
retrieve it. Two days later, however, Carley Helm was reunited with
Neytiri even though at first the family thought the pet was emptied with
the trash. Carley was heading home to Milwaukee after visiting
her father in Atlanta with sisters Annie, 13, and Rebecca, 22, when the
flap unfolded. Rebecca said the three were led onto the jetway and
told they'd have to get rid of the baby red ear slider -- named Neytiri
after the princess in the movie "Avatar" -- if they wanted to reboard. "I
asked, 'What do you mean get rid of it?' and they said throw it away,"
she said. "I was very sad, and I felt bad for my littlest sister because
it was her first pet and she was planning to take care of it herself."
