Amazing! 19 different varieties! I'm from western Canada and we don't have any possums in my neck of the woods.. there are some in Eastern Canada.

We don’t have _any_ possums in Canada. We do, however, have opossum. While their names are similar (and often incorrectly used interchangeably by some), they are distinctly different animals and belong in different order of marsupials.

…and our Australian versions are clearly superior (ringtails and brushtails that is). Our Maple Syrup is absolute rubbish though, and we have no River Otters whatsoever. By my reckoning that’s about even then. Canucks 1 : Aussies 1 A shared win!

I have found a baby one on the road alone. His tail is broken, will he have much chance in the wild? And where can I get the baby formula

G'day Hewin, You did an Awesome job introducing us to Remy & Linguini 🥰 but they looked like they really wanted to be in bed, Do they have 2 Thumbs on their hands like a Koala??? it looked like it when they were climbing

[@ingridsteinlechner8206]

I also saw it, it has two thumps like the koala. It also lives almost on the trees.

One night my cat brought me a baby ringtail possum just like these ones... He was like maybe about a month or two I opened the door to bring them in before i go to sleep and saw something very small moving next to him... i paniced cos i thought it was a rat (as he'd been hunting rats and mouse in the past before) wasn't sure what is it but the more i looked the more i knew it wasn't a rat... So shockingly it wasn't scared of me or even the cats at all! I was the only one panic in there i guess otherwise both the cats and the possom were quite calm still shocked and puzzled with whath8 was happening ive got closer and it actually climed my hand... 😍 im still trying to find out why my cat was so gentle with it... he brought with him a stray kitten before but a baby possom? so similar to a rat!? (but ofc cuter❤)

Ringtail possum is the only possum species where male carries young on its back while mom feeding. Please keep your cats indoor at night. I just sent a cat injured ringtail to emergency vet in the middle of the night. If it were not walking dogs at night, the gentle charming creature could have died.🙏 May all of us care about Australian native animals, they are living a tough life, cars, cats, powerlines, owls, fox, deforestation, especially human ignorance. We need to learn about them and respect them.🙏

Why do you get cute possums?! They are so precious and small!

[@petermurdoch7540]

They ate my Mandevillas, I thought Mandevillas were poisonous.
