This is one of the latest truck the Animal Rescue Team use for Animal Rescue situation. It is fully equip with all the necessary facilities and cage that will assist in rescuing the animals and transporting them safely to the shelter. All the cages are equip with proper ventilation and also air-conditioned to make sure the animals gets the best environment while being transported to their destination.
One of the facilities is this elevator cage that can easily move more aggressive animals into the truck without hurting them.
Other cool built in facilities including a rear view monitor that is connected to a close circuit camera installed behind the truck for the Rescue Team to monitor the condition/situation on behind inside the truck while driving at the same time! COOL!
I'm pretending to be one of the rescue team's driver!

It is without a doubt a well equipped Animal Rescue truck!
