Adorable Possum Sneaks Into Hardware Store to Feast on Tomato and Strawberry Plants


While shopping at a local hardware store in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, a woman spotted a super cute brushtail possum enjoying an all-you-can-eat buffet in the store’s garden section.

“While wandering through the garden section, I was surprised to see a very special animal customer eating the tomato and strawberry seedlings. A native Australian brush-tail possum, which is usually nocturnal must have felt a bit hungry. He didn’t appear to be frightened and seemed to relish the attention! Protected by law they can’t move him more than 30 meters away from where he is found.”
