So, Tasmanian's really do have two heads! A
partially tame brush tail possum with her baby on
our deck.
Once hunted extensively for their pelts but now
partially protected. It is served in some
restaraunts for curious tourists, however the
meat has a strong gamey flavour due to their diet
of leaves. (Hey, you eat little baa lambs don't
you!! - Tone is now basically vegetarian.) |
