Opossums are actually simply called Possums,
which is probably what you know them by.
Opossums are ONLY
native to North America and they are the
ONLY marsupials that are native in
North America. Opossums are like the
Australian native marsupial, the Kangaroo:
(females that carry their young in their
pouch). Possums are nocturnal animals that
are rarely seen in the day time. They are
known for their amusing habit of playing
dead when they feel threatened.
Opossums feed on insects, grass, small
mammals, fish, and dead animals. But, most
importantly they are most beneficial than
they are given credit for.
They
present very little problem when in presence
of the public. They become a problem when
they are trapped and can't get out and when
they invade homes, basements and other
buildings.
Remember, opossums rarely
bite or attack humans unless they are
provoked and almost never become infected
with rabies. They of course because they are
in the wild and not care of animal doctors
or are home pets, they carry parasites like
ticks and fleas. That is what may spread the
diseases and that is why if they come in too
close to a home or a building they must be
removed.
The simple solution of the
possum problem is trapping them (they don't
make it hard to catch them) and preventing
them from getting back. Opossums are like
any other wild animal; they shouldn't be
trapped by a non-professional wild life
handler and or scared because they will
defend themselves.
