We've all heard "I'm stuck in traffic" or "I lost my keys", as an excuse as why someone was late for work. But have you ever heard "an opossum climbed into my engine block and refused leave"? Well Elly, one of the Conservation Ecology Lab's newest postdocs, found herself in this exact situation. The opossum was leisurely hanging out under the car when Elly went to leave yesterday morning, it must have gotten spooked and crawled up into the engine block and refused to leave. No better excuse for an ecologist to be late to the office than wildlife stopping your commute before it could even start!
