Opossums might not win any beauty contests, but they’re secret superheroes of the animal world. 🦸‍♂️🐾

They chow down on pests like ticks (up to 5,000 in a single season!), roaches, and even rodents — slashing the spread of nasty diseases like Lyme. They’re also basically immune to rattlesnake venom, thanks to a special blood protein scientists are now studying to create life-saving antivenom.

Next time you see one waddling by, give it a little respect — it’s working the night shift to keep you safe. 🌙✨
