This Is All Kinds Of Wrong of the Day: A school in New Zealand is on the defensive this week after it hosted a best-dressed dead opossum competition.
Photos from Tuesday’s competition at the Uruti School show a skinned opossum dressed as a boxer, some in baby clothes, and two relaxing on mini beach towels.
Uruti School principal Pauline Sutton says feedback has all been positive: ”When people die, don’t we dress them up?”
SPCA spokeswoman Jackie Poles-Smith begs to differ.
The SPCA’s focus is on teaching children respect and empathy for animals and they didn’t do that. Animals deserve respect even after death.

The coverage of this whole thing pisses me off. I am a staunch possum killer, though.
