Possum Pair Get a Helping Hand

Occurred on December 8, 2019 / Gawler, South Australia, Australia

Info from Licensor: "This Brushtail possum lived in the woodshed before we moved into this house (they are native to Australia, and commonly found in residential areas). She has since had three babies, one of which currently lives there with her. This is in Gawler, South Australia, and currently, we have temperatures in the mid 40 degrees Celsius every day. The side of the shed gets too hot to touch and the possums suffer, so we take care to hose the shed down during the day and provide water to the possums. On really bad days we also provide them with some fruit but don't make a habit out of feeding them. They are quite friendly as you can see but are still wild animals and will bite if provoked."
