How they grow…Virginia Opossum

When they were about 10 weeks old, Moose and Joey survived a car accident that killed their mother. With lots of love and care, the boys survived and grew up at the World Bird Sanctuary. They can be seen at our Visitor Center and are a popular attraction at programs. These photographs, taken by Gay Schroer, show Moose and Joey as they grew from tiny babies to adults.
