Oh-Possum!
On a nature walk along our property we found this opossum skull. Then a long time later when Penny was napping, Ellie decided to do some lab work on it and took some notes. Then she watched some YouTube videos about opossums. We learned that the opossum is the only marsupial native to North America, they are immune to snake venom, and have like lots and lots of tiny babies because many do not make it to the pouch. When we went to the West Coast Game Park Safari , we got to meet a real live young opossum! Expansion ideas: Look for tracks, compare with our own. Locate Virginia on a map.
