Who is Mrs. Possum?

Mrs. Possum is a minor but memorable character from Disney’s classic animated film Bambi (1942). She appears during one of the lighter moments of the story, bringing a touch of humor and charm to the film’s depiction of woodland life.

Mrs. Possum is portrayed as a caring and maternal figure, known for her nurturing demeanor toward her children. Like many of the animals in Bambi, her characterization reflects humanized traits, adding relatability and depth to her interactions. Mrs. Possum and her children are seen hanging upside down from a tree branch, an accurate portrayal of real possum behavior. Her brief scenes contribute to the rich tapestry of the forest community, showcasing the interconnected lives of various creatures.

Mrs. Possum was voiced by Paula Winslowe, who also provided the voice for Bambi’s mother. Winslowe’s ability to convey both warmth and maternal care made her a perfect fit for these roles. As an experienced radio and voice actress, Winslowe brought depth and personality to her characters, helping Bambi achieve its timeless appeal.
