Is there any truth to the rumor that the opossum was adopted by Oprah?

How it was able to get a Costco membership we'll never know, but maybe next time get the rotisserie chicken?

You can bet this possum will never do THAT again.

We all love Costco, but my takeaway was the third paragraph from the end: "She was also found to have a high level of lead, likely from eating local insects." Wait, what?

Both have passed their expiration dates.

@Richard - I noticed that, too. Chelation is no fun and has to be monitored carefully. Gretna NE has a population of ~9000, according to 2022 Census.

Opossums often behave this way when startled, but they’re fascinating creatures to observe. On another note, this reminds me of how io games cleverly blend simple mechanics with engaging visuals—much like nature’s creative surprises! If you enjoy exploring quirky, interactive experiences, these games give off a similar charm to observing wildlife.

These paws are useless when it comes time to stick your finger down your throat.
