Ringo the Ringtail

I should have put this pic up of @soniainhk nursing Ringo the orphaned ringtail possum that we hand raised, to go with the ones from yesterday. Photo taken in 1986

That's cute, and was it hard for him to get back into the wild?

So cute.

@digitalrn Not really Rick. When we thought he was ready, we put his cage outside under a big Eucalypt with the door open and for a few nights he'd go off exploring and then return to sleep the day away in the cage. And then one morning he wasn't there and never returned.

@terryliv Glad to hear, because sometimes it can be difficult for them to adjust.

She was a lovely little possum. But that brush tail possum we looked after was a mean little girl.
