Last Sunday we received a call about a mother opossum that was fatally struck by a car. There were several babies still clinging to their lifeless mother. The good people that contacted us had gathered six babies by the time we arrived. I checked the pouch for remaining babies, but unfortunately two had died. As I was getting ready to take the little ones to my house I decided to look around the street and curb areas just to make sure I wasn't leaving any babies behind. And just as I was getting ready to leave I saw one more baby that was in rough shape. So with a total of 7 babies I made my way home until we could get them to our friends over at TSE Wildlife Center later that day!
I'm happy to say that all of the babies are doing great and eating on their own! Follow TSE Wildlife Center for updates on our opossum friends as well as other wildlife under their care!🐿️🐢🐰🐭
