All About Possums

Past event
Jun 9, 2018, 11 AM to 12 PM

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!
