While many North American residents see possums as overgrown rats, I argue that this opinion is an insult to these uniquely beautiful creatures. Most know the United States’ only marsupial for its ability to play dead in the presence of predators or, say, an incoming motor vehicle.

Luckily, the UW-Madison campus provides a number of beautiful green spaces in which students can destress.
