Puppy escapes being crushed in a trash compactor.

Workers at a Evansville, In. recycling plant last week discovered a live 6-month-old puppy in the middle of 6,000 pounds of cardboard they were unloading off a truck.

They said the mixed breed dog somehow survived the truck's compacting mechanism that repeatedly crushes the cardboard with 35,000 pounds of pressure.

No one knows if the pup deliberately was sealed in a box and thrown in a dumpster, or if she fell into a trash bin on her own.
