Summary:

When faced with an enemy, the opossum flops over and doesn't move. Drool bubbles from its nose, and a smelly liquid might squirt out from its butt. Did it die of fright? No, it's playing dead! Along with other tricks, the opossum pretends to be dead so its enemies will move on to their next snack. Fun text and eye-catching photos introduce the animal in all its gross glory.
