POSSUM: Stuck in traffic
Saw this guy on the way to work today.
He was stuck on a divider on Route 17 in East Rutherford.
I called the police. They were already aware of the situation.
In case you’re wondering: I took the photo while stopped at a traffic light.

Oh, I’d be looking for signs of him on the way home, poor thing. I have what I think is an orphan baby possum hanging around the yard. I think he’s eating the fruit off what was supposed to be an ornamental plum (thanks a lot, Allendale Nursery). At least someone’s enjoying the plums.
