Erica somehow managed to reopen the wound on her tail, so pre-release will have to wait until she's healed up.

Petey is out in pre-release! We only have one more overwintered animal to release, then a slight respite before baby season starts.

Petey, trying to deal with the existential horror of being an opossum ... and that someone hasn't filled his food bowl yet.

Erica, our newest overwintered resident, is a female who came in severely underweight, and had been chewed by a dog and only weighed a pound; she's much healthier now!

Petey, anxiously awaiting food. He's very skittish, but don't let him fool you -- he's a voracious eater.

Pirate, our large overwintered female. She seems like she just can't wait to get back out ... as soon as the weather warms up.

They shouldn't. They can be secured or weighted down if you're worried about high winds.
The largest male that we have who is being overwintered. He's rarely happy to see anyone, but always happy when the food dish fills up!

Another new intake, Petey, from Granby. He's gaining weight, but he's petrified of people (as he should be). He loves his scrambled eggs!

Meet our new intake, Erica. She was rescued from a dog attack, and is resting. Thank you to Dr. Kneeland at Peake Brooke Veterinary Center for taking such good care of her!

Someone decided that he had to hide when his food dishes were being filled. I think he's not as good at hide and seek as he thinks he is.

The male overwintering guest opossum flipped his plastic castle over, and is sitting in it, hissing. #wildlife #wildliferehab #wildliferehabilitation #rehabilitation #wildliferescue #opossum #opossums #opossumsofbluesky
