Cocoa was severely injured in April 2006. She had a large leg wound at the same time. The photos above show her
torn ear, the healing in progress, and the final (distinctive) result. We don't know how Cocoa obtained her injury.
Cocoa has always managed to find some kind of trouble or other. Her unpredictability is part of her charm.

GK came up with the "Draggle-Ear" nickname, and now she is known as the Fierce Draggle-Ear. She is the only
female possum in our area (September 2006), and all the males are intimidated by her.
