Did you know that opossums are North America’s only marsupial? Or that 95% of them are naturally immune to rabies? Just one possum eats up to 5,000 ticks a year, yet doesn’t contract or carry Lyme disease! They also eat insects, snails, small rodents, and dead stuff! If you see one, kindly ignore it, they mean no harm and are more scared of you than you are of them!
