Possum shows compassion

We were at the Curtain Square park yesterday, and were talking to our friend Rheya Linden. We were talking about the possums, and were told an amazing story. A few nights ago, when Rheya was visiting the possums, she noticed that one of the possums, who was pregnant, seemed to be keeping a small animal warm. At first she thought that it had given birth, but then she realised that it was a baby magpie! It had been left all alone by it's parents, and the possum had been keeping it warm. She took the little magpie home, and the next day it was reuntied with it's parents at the park. It is important to remember that it's not only humans who can show compassion.

Sincerely,
Miki Bluethorn
