Join Howard Romack and author and illustrator Anne Hunter at Battenkill Books on Saturday, June 9th at 11am for a celebration of the humble possum!
Did you know:
-Due to an opossum's low body temperature and successful immune system, it's very rare for one to carry rabies.
-In northern regions, opossums often have abnormally short tails - the ends are lost due to frostbite.
-The Virginia opossum has more teeth than any other North American Mammal - 50, to be exact.
On June 9th, join us to:
-Learn about possums with local naturalist & educator Howard Romack!
-Listen as author and illustrator Anne Hunter reads her new book, Possum and the Summer Storm!
-Create your own possum mask to wear!
