But it's also very interesting since this Australian woman doesn't even keep snakes.
There was an article I read about a village with multiple psittacosis cases. And none of the people kept birds. Everyone picked it up as environmental contaminants. As someone who had psittacosis, that was interesting to me too.
Just a casual reminder that life happens. Lol. (And wash your veggies)
Also.... This is another good reason to avoid feeding your animals anything wild caught as well. Or deworming long term escapees in the case of a lost animal.
Weirdly... I have a bathroom opossum for a year now. My dog found him as a super anemic orphan. He ended up being a super picky eater...and carrying besonoitis. So that scrapped getting him released or placed around other opossums. He has mostly good days, but some rough ones.
