Possum me my glasses

- ■ by SHUK YEE TSANG

★ THESE cross-eyed possums aren’t playing – they really do wear specs to correct their vision.

Dolly Neel takes her rescued pets Winnie, Milo, Otis and Wendell with her wherever she goes. The 43-year-old, from Pennsylvan­ia, says possums can naturally become cross-eyed as they store fat in their eyes and tail over winter.

★ She added: “People think it is kind of strange but cool at the same time.”
