I found an Opossum caught in a trap set by our neighbour to get some raccoons.

This was in Lakefield, north of Peterborough, Ontario.

Thank you for sending us your picture - this little chap looks quite young.

I hope your neighbour released him!

Oh I didn't tell my neighbour - just released this poor little fella out into the night.

Please move any opossum found or trapped in the Peterborough surrounds to Burleigh Falls forested areas where their main diet of ticks are abundant.

Just saw a possum sitting beside the road. Didn’t realize they are here!
