Little Mia the possum arrived in the
Valley in mid-winter. She was raised by one of the amazing rehabilitators at WA
Wildlife, and is very fond of people. A soft release of Mia on site at WA
Wildlife saw her returning to people for attention, which was a little
concerning for clinic staff, so it was decided Mia could come to the Valley for
a soft release. Here she could safely roam around the buildings without
fear of vehicles.
On a sunny Sunday, a team of WA Wildlife volunteers
bundled up Mia, along with her soft release aviary, and built her new
soft-release home amongst the marri trees. Mia’s nest box was popped in,
along with lots of branches and treats, so she could settle before being given access
to the outside forest.
Mia is doing really well in the Valley, returning for
dinner and attention whenever she wishes. Her favourite treats –
blueberries and almonds – are sometimes hidden in nearby tree foliage, which she enjoys seeking out. Stay safe Mia – you are a special little possum!
