Opossum Needs Help Again, Part III
I'm trying to help save this opossum's broken leg so that it doesn't have to be amputated and so that he can eventually be releasable again. He's a big boy though. Probably the biggest male opossum I've ever seen. And for the third time, he's managed to work off the splint, wraps, and soft cast that was on his arm. The bone is almost healed, but it's at a messed up angle now because he went too long without stabilization since the last time I was here. His hand still has some feeling and adequate blood supply, but it's weak and he doesn't have much dexterity in it right now, which means that although he probably isn't going to lose the leg, he isn't going to be as ambulatory on it as probably needed to be wild again. But, in a last attempt to stabilize the arm, we splinted and wrapped it this time and then pinned it against his body in the hopes that maybe it will stay there for a few more days before he tears it off. The plan initially was to wrap his arm in rigid plaster cast, and I thought I did have plaster cast, because I had a donation in the supply bin from some years ago that was labeled as plaster cast, but it was actually just a soft flexible cast material that does not harden. I'm at the mercy most times of what supplies are donated to me. Not what I'd like to have.
