I tried to swat this guy off my porch with a beer can and he ripped the can open.
Just sat there staring at me.
I was like "Okay, dude. You stay on that side and I'll stay on mine."

What the Okie-Dokie Hoo Hah?

they grow em weird lookin down under... Ain't no possum i've ever seen

Looks more like a lemur of sorts...

Canadian possum?

They look freaky but they're not vicious

If you think the possum in the youtube clip looked weird, you should check out the sugar glider possum.



They can actually glide up to 90 metres from tree to tree.

Anyway, although opossums are considered a different animal to Australian possums... The Australian possum was named after the American opossum, due to their similarities.

Also interestingly, it's now believed that all Australian native mammals (which are all marsupials) have a common ancestor with an American marsupial, which migrated to Australia many millions of years ago.... So technically, opossums (or something very similar) populated Australia with all its native mammals.
