RIP

[Kobi]

From the CROW clinic:

With heavy hearts, we said goodbye to one of our beloved Animal Ambassadors, Sneezy.

Sneezy first came to us in 2014 after he was hit by a car. He suffered a broken jaw and tail. To prevent infection, his tail was amputated, making him non-releasable. He spent the next few years teaching CROW visitors about the importance of opossums in the environment.

In the recent weeks, as old age began to set in (opossums only live 1-2 years in the wild), arthritis in his hind limbs gradually made it more difficult for Sneezy to walk. His quality of life had declined to the point that veterinarians at CROW had to make the extremely difficult decision to ease his pain.

Sneezy will be greatly missed, but never forgotten.
