Snoopy is an owner give-up that was
originally bought at a reptile swap. He's a beautiful white
color, which is unusual for opossums. Once he's picked up, he
loves to cuddle. People are amazed how soft and clean Snoopy
is. See an opossum on my shoulder instead of on the side of the
road! It's true that opossums can play dead, but it's more like
fainting. They even bloat and give off a stink that resembles
rotting meat so that they don't get eaten. Think about that
the next time you see a "dead" opossum. Mythbuster: Adults
cannot hang from their tails, and youngsters can only hang
momentarily if they have to. Fact: Opossums have more teeth
than any other North American land mammal!! 50 to be exact.
