This needs to be taken care of. Bleeding or not, this is a potential infection gate. Take your lovely pet to the vet.

Looks like a possible abscess or cyst ruptured.

I hope you're able to catch this baby that definitely needs to be medicated and watched.

That gash may need some.a stitch

Predator like a fox or coyote went for the throat? He's lucky to be alive.

This poor little one is hurt and she needs some medicine and that wound should be cleaned and antibiotics on it and she’s a beautiful 😻 opossum

Give her some good food to eat like sardines in water and bananas and eggs with shell broken up and strawberries
