Real Possum Appears Among Plush Toy Animals In Australian Airport Gift Shop #NDTV

A browsing passenger first spotted a living Australian brushtail possum peering out from among the kangaroos on the display shelf at the departure terminal shop at Hobart Airport in Tasmania state on Wednesday, an airport retail manager Liam Bloomfield said on Thursday.

Above the possum were bilbies, marsupials with rabbit-like long ears, and dingoes, Australia’s native dog. Beside the possum in the kangaroo section were Tasmanian devils, a growling carnivore that inspired the feisty Warner Bros. cartoon character Taz.

A staff a member took a video of the possum with her phone before the animal grew wary of the growing attention and left the shop.

Airport staff were able to remove the possum from the airport unharmed. How the possum got into the store and how long it spent there are also unknown.
