Get ready for your daily dose of cuteness! Although possums might not be the first thing to pop into your mind when you picture a cute animal, these baby possums are anything but creepy. In fact, they're 100-percent adorable!
These tiny baby possums were rescued from the wild, and part of their rehabilitation includes a nice watermelon snack! As they eat with their tiny little hands, they're just so cute! I'll be the first to admit that adult possums aren't the cutest things around — but as babies, they're so cuddly!
Wildlife activist Terry Carlisi rescued the five babies after their mother was hit by a car and died. When the mother possum dies, the babies in her pouch often survive and are thus orphaned. Thanks to the care of Carlisi, the possums were given a second chance. He helped raise the babies for six months and then let them loose on his 3,000-acre reservoir. (Remember, if you ever find orphaned possums, you should contact a licensed animal rehabilitator, veterinarian, state department of wildlife, or animal control for assistance.)
Seeing these little survivors makes you realize how miraculous and amazing nature is. God bless this amazing hero for stepping in when no one else would!
