Awwwww! It’s a possum! And it’s watching you go to the bathroom! Wait a sec, that’s no good. Or it is? Marsupials are held to a separate peeping standard (as they should be).
This Chuck Berry of the animal kingdom was spotted at Melbourne’s Yarra Bend Park by a staff member. This staff member responded to this possum’s lavatory bachelor pad with a note alerting a park ranger. A park ranger named CAMERON! Let’s read the note that greeted Cameron.
“Hi Cameron. There is a possum living inside the paper dispenser of the toilet at the Loop picnic area. Thank you.”
There’s something beautiful about that polite “thank you” at the end of a “please get this creature away from our bathroom tissue” message. In a world gone mad with possums gobbling our hygiene products, it doesn’t mean we need to nibble through our manners as well.
“BUT HOW WILL THE POSSUM SURVIVE?” you ask. Not to worry. This would-be Ghoulie has been set up with a new place to hang out that’s billed by Parks Victoria as a “more spacious” brand of accommodation. We wish our possum friend the best in his new digs.
