Baby possum - or better toddler opossum. This one we dropped of at a wildlife rehabilitator. Caught one before, two afterwards, and just let them go - they are old enough to make it on their own we have been told.
The babies and toddlers are cute - the adults not so much. The fur is actually super soft!
The adults are not so cute - like a giant rat (20 in/ 50 cm) with a pretty big tail and many more teeth. They are kind of cute, and from what I have read not really 'bad' but really not that nice to look at or smell. This below possum looks ok from this perspective, but is as large as a really big house cat.
