Baby Opossum Scurries Through LAX, Captured by Animal Control
TMZ ^ | 5/23/24 | TMZ

This opossum had a big day at LAX! The little critter didn't quite make his way through TSA though, eventually getting nabbed by animal control. All's well that ends well, however ... we were told he would be released in a local park!

I guess the little critter was lucky to be born in California, in West Virginia the little thing would be part of a stew or roadkill,

Don't get mad at me, I grew up in West Virginia.

They’re so cute when they’re babies...like alligators.

I have no problem with possums running through airports, but coons are another story.

No worries, FRiend.

We’ve been toughened up by reading about Kristi Noem.

The possum was trying. Trying very hard to avoid a cavity search. I would’ve run off too.

Where was he trying to fly to?
I don't blame him for trying to get out of California.

My female bully mix (yeah, she’s a vicious killer, never get one 🙄) keeps bringing me possums through the dog door. My wife is not thrilled. I take them out front and release them.

This is the year of the possum.

I found a baby one blown out of a tree and have been giving it food. Then a second one showed up. Then a third.

Then there were to enormous adults corking on the top of the garden wall the other night.

They do eat a lot of roof rats so it’s good to keep them around.
