If you see a dead opossum on the road, please check that there are no little babies nestled inside the mother’s pouch.
- Call Procyon Wildlife immediately at 905-729-0033.
- Check if the opossum is a mother with babies in her pouch.
- Bring the dead mother to the Centre so our trained volunteers can safely remove the babies from her pouch.
- Do not attempt to feed the babies.
- Never transport wildlife babies with any noise in the car, such as a loud radio or talking.
To show you the size of a baby, this little one is beside a dime.
