While it may be difficult to think about, proper disposal of euthanized animals, including pets & livestock, is imperative to keeping wildlife, pets, AND people safe! If you work in vetmed, animal shelters, with livestock, or at landfills, please make sure you’re following disposal guidelines!

It's that time of year!! Time to help @skypeascientist.bsky.social by telling every teacher, librarian, troop leader, etc you know that Fall enrollment is OPEN! Get matched with a scientist for a Q&A! bit.ly/EnrollFall2023 We rely on word of mouth, so this action is critical for us!
An explainer for skype a scientist that says "Skype a Scientist chat with scientists FOR FREE" followed by "How it works:
Step 1: Sign up on SkypeAScientist.com

Step 2: Pick types of science your group would like to talk about (30 categories!)

Step 3: Connect with your scientist via email and pick a time to chat.

Step 4: Talk to your scientist!"  and a little logo of ours and these words "Skype a Scientist is a Philly-
based science communication 501(c)3 non-profit "

Another fact about opossums - while they’re not considered a rabies vector species, they CAN get rabies - it’s a common myth that they’re immune! This is why it’s so important not to handle wildlife with bare hands, but to also get them to a professional ASAP rather than attempt care yourself
