Opossum Snowboards
Ok just file this one under too bizarre to delete. It is courtesy of Liberty Mountain Resort in Vermont where at one point this winter they must have had snow, because, as you will see in the above video, Ratatouille, the opossum goes snowboarding. That's right, a nocturnal marsupial (note those pink claws) can hang ten with the best of them.
I truly have nothing else to say except the only opossum I have ever seen had to be removed by the Animal Control officer (one was lurking behind one of my huge front door terra cotta pots and the dogs went crazy barking at him) because they are believed to carry rabies.
Enough said.
