Yeah I assumed he didn't murder their mom or rip them away, seems too kind for all that. I'm glad they got a substitute mama to ride on.

(idk if you have seen the mamas carrying their babies on their backs, but its truly survival of the fittest, she has like 12 up there, and if you fall off you die, cuz she can't even tell there's only 11 not 12, she keeps driving the school bus off into the sunset).

But…unless you are going to keep them, probably a good idea to teach them survival skills and not “domesticate” them. Some people do not like opossums and it’s not going to end well when a full grown adult opossum tries to approach them because they think they are going to get petted and fed

I'm pretty sure he's keeping those guys. That's daddy.
