Can I keep an opossum as a pet?

Answer: No. All wild animals belong in the wild. Give the opossum the chance to live the life nature intended…in the wild. In most states it is illegal to be in possession of a wild animal without the proper permits. If the opossum is an orphan or injured then seek immediate assistance. Otherwise, release the animal. Also, read the information in the next two sections for more reasons why you should not attempt to raise it unless you are properly trained.

Ottawa, we have groundhogs though. They are so cool. There is neither in Nova Scotia, I'll miss them both. However, we have no skunks which is a bonus.

we were in one of those animal parks that you drive in where they say you can't open your windows. Well we opened our windows and one of the emus started pecking at my friend's dad. It was hilarious. They they tried like eating the car.

When I was in the London Zoo when I was like 10, we went in the petting zoo. There was some wallabies and they are really cool.

Ottawa doesn't have opposums? Man.. thats where I am living right now (for school)... now I feel so gypped (sp?). Im going to have to go home and find myself one.
I dont know what everyone's big deal with them is though, they really aren't all that wonderful. Kinda evil actually. They have weird hairless tails and they hiss a lot.

Yo man, skunks are awsome. I'm gonna get a pet skunk. I'm going to name him Rex. Last time I went camping there were skunks everywhere. It was chill, I chased them.

I want a servant monkey, one that will go get stuff for me, and i think i will train it to rip the clothes off of hot women in public, and he will go around robbing banks with his squirt gun pistol, and also he will eat banannas.

I thought that they were called possums. but dude... those things are ugly. like giant rats. I saw one that was just chillen in the snow bank like a month ago.... he had small eyes. I think he wanted to kill me.

Yeah, I'd probably get its stink glands removed, although it's really not AS neccessary as you think it is, but it is still a good idea.

Dave, I think he wanted to take a bite out of that sweet ass of yours.
