You just never know what Santa will bring you. This Christmas Santa Claus (and the Arizona Dept. of Public Safety) brought us an opossum! She’s a young female Virginia opossum. It’s likely that she hitched a ride on a vehicle coming in from out of state. Since she’s not native to Arizona, she can’t be released in our state, so we’ll keep her safe and warm until we find a new home for her. See the video!
