One of the Only animals immune to this wretched disease
Look at this rabiesless creature.
Did you know that non-mammals such as birds, reptiles, and fish are also unable to contract rabies due to the virus only being compatible with mammal cell structure?
This is an oppsum not a possum
Our movement focuses specifically on educating the non aware possum enthusiasts that possums cannot contract this disease… Opposums are outside our lens of expertise but we have hired Opposum experts who will be starting the Opposums can’t get rabies movement (opposumsdontgotrabies.org coming very soon)
The primary differences-
Opossums are native to North America with a white face, pink nose, and a mostly hairless tail. (This is a Virginia Opposum pictured to the left)
Possums are native to Australia and nearby regions, generally with rounder faces and furry tails (An Australia brushtail possum is pictured above on our homescreen).
Have a Question?
Our possum experts will respond to any inquiries about the dangers of rabies or the possum species as a whole.
Just give the team 24-48 hours and you will be met with a level of possum experience you’ve never seen before.
