Despite our strong petition, no legislator has stepped up to introduce a measure to repeal North Carolina’s “Be Cruel to Opossums” law, and we’re running out of time in the 2019 legislative session.
The good news is twofold: the legislature is considering at least one animal-friendly bill this year, and Millie continues to recover from her amputation. We will redouble our efforts going forward, including hammering any town that attempts to hold an “opossum drop” this coming New Years’ Eve.
This petition will remain open until the law is repealed so please keep sharing! #JusticeForMillie
