Pets on the Titanic
By: Julia Grashuis
Question 1: What animals were on the Titanic?
On a lighter note, there is a report of an animal that survived! Persistent and brave, Mrs. Elizabeth Rothschild owned a Pomeranian that was not allowed to get on one of the lifeboats. Mrs. Rothschild refused to leave without her beloved companion and the crew members finally gave in. Her persistence saved her little dog's life.
