Reply To: Two groaners

I was in Australia and I came across a cat-size rodent, wearing a little colorful shirt, lying dead in the road. (honk if you see this one coming from a mile away…). I was saddened that someone’s pet had died, but my Australian friend consoled me.

“It’s not a pet. That species always wears shirts. And it’s just pretending to be dead.” I thought that was really strange. Then I realized.

It was a kesones possum.
