We thought our followers would enjoy seeing some of the babies that come into our facility during baby season – First up, baby opossums. Enjoy!

Many people have no lost love for opossum. They do, however, have their purpose. They eat dead animals and those often have diseases. They don’t contract those diseases; instead, they prevent the spread of diseases by cleaning things up. You are a healthier person because of the opossum.
