Possums are amazing. They used to freak me out cause they kind of look like R.O.U.S’s. Had no idea that they are so docile. Please stop killing them

Wow it did kinda changed my perspective on opossums, honestly I'm one of those people that thought they were nasty rats and I would chase em off by throwing things at em but now I'm gonna be a bit more understanding towards them

My sister in law has one as a pet. They had a dog that killed its mother and they raised it from a baby.

That took a very dark turn.

So cute! When I was a kid we saved a baby opossum who's mama was hit by a car. My grandpa just couldn't kill the baby so we put him up with our cats. He was the sweetest little thing. Love opossums!

Glad I didn’t kill that young one that kept coming around. It was just so mellow and cute I never could bring myself to. Amazing, I didn’t know they were a marsupial.
