"A group of animals sit on a cloud in heaven, bearing the tire marks of their demise. All have been elevated to angel status and have wings, except for the snake and Peter’s visiting mouse. A hedgehog peers out beneath a badger who clutches an exhaust pipe, while another badger holds the tail of a squirrel. The rabbit prepares to detonate a bomb that is inside the box; he seeks revenge on the car - the instrument of their deaths. ‘For Kelly’ on the tail refers to a pet dog that once belonged to Peter’s wife. Many famous people who died in traffic accidents are commemorated directly or indirectly:
