Sammy

Virginia opossum

At several weeks old, Sammy’s mother was hit and killed by a car. After being rushed to a veterinary hospital he was brought to Ferncroft Wildlife Rescue in Woodstock, CT where he went through extensive rehabilitation. Sadly, due to the extent of his injuries, their veterinarian deemed him non-releasable, so he lives at the West Hartford campus and serves as a marsupial ambassador.
