@Rick Wilkinson Both possum and opossum correctly refer to the Virginia opossum frequently seen in North America. In common use, possum is the usual term; in technical or scientific contexts opossum is preferred. Opossum can be pronounced with its first syllable either voiced or silent .

@Rick Wilkinson no, if you use “Virginia Opossum” yes but the slang is perfectly acceptable

Gosh, I love them too. They are one of my absolute favorite animals. I like to catch them and let them hang by the tail from my hand as I investigate them. They usually put up a really fierce act as a first line of defense, but most of that is just that, an act. Once you get one by their prehensile tail and hang it upside down, they will chill right out and normally just hang out and listen to you talk with their wiggly little ears. They are also, to my knowledge, the only marsupial native to the United States. Around here where I live, people's first reaction is to kill them. That's their reaction to most animals they don't understand. It saddens and disturbs me for it to be that way, so I do whatever I can to change the narrative of the opossum in their feeble minds. They are not here for us to kill. And, if you do kill one, you very likely may be killing a sweet mama possum who has a pouch full of helpless little babies.

@Rick Wilkinson It's ok. The critters don't have a preference. 😅💙

Possums are very misunderstood animals.

@@WildlifeCommandCenter and sadly short lived regardless of the conditions they live in.

Whenever I hear rabies I think of that movie with that rabid dog, Cujo!😅 Is rabies contagious otherwise? And if so, I wonder why hasn't wiped out the animal population that are susceptible?

@@thinkinsidetheboxsquarecir3303 Motive transmission pretty much is what limits it, bite Slava transfer those types of things rabies does wipe out a lot of animals but what is it happening is they can’t transmit it to the next host well enough or effectively

@@WildlifeCommandCenter oh, okay! That was helpful! Thanks! 💯

They do help so much more than people realize

@@WildlifeCommandCenter they're also delicious

@@damon19751 yeap, they are edible but l wouldn't do it .

@@JoseMedina-ob4mf I grew up "near" the swamp and my grandfather said 'if it fly, walk, crawl or swim we can eat it', deep south Louisiana.

@@damon19751 I'm from Louisiana and would never eat one. Lol

Guess they're "slow to wake up" and slow to warm up lol.

This is so funny because we briefly owned a opossum who I swore forgot who we were every morning like 50 first dates lol

@@jrich436 i used to joke that Jenkem looked at me in the morning like I was a cop lmao

This makes me think they are blind or nearly blind.

They are pretty darn cute

@@WildlifeCommandCenter so because their body temp is so low, can they carry leprosy like armadillos or is it too low for that? I LOVE POSSUMS!!! I'm in Columbia MO!!!

@@KatieDeGo There has never been a recorded case of possums having leprosy that’s a bacteria specific to armadillos

@@WildlifeCommandCenter thank you for your reply sir(s)! Good to know! We have possums and raccoons we put out snacks for nightly 💗

Not a mammal

Thank you! Will do! Certainly they are more beneficial than a nuisance

@@sweetpotatoxl This is the truth! They are Marsupials which all have lower body temperatures. :) They very seldom get it themselves.

Check out what an Australian opossum looks like.

I read about them a while back when my parents kept finding babies and stuff in their yard. Mainly looking to see what they eat. Was kinda surprised at all the info I found. Especially that they don’t get rabies often. Everyone thinks that, probably bc of raccoons.

He said “rarely”. That’s not “not a rabies risk”.

Yes, they are indeed well-known.

A new study actually found that opossums do not eat ticks. That myth was spread because of one very unscientific "study"

@@erintubb9860 oh, I see. Well, they're still neat~ And to be fair, the erroneous fact was being pushed by places that are usually reliable....like the National Wildlife Federation and channels like PBS, so it's not hard to believe that it was believed by many, like myself. They are, however, apparently impervious to snake venom....so that's kinda cool.

Even if they did eat ticks, that would be the least disgusting thing that they are known to eat.

They aren't scary

Fun fact ticks are one of their top favorite foods.

I'm sure parents will say anything to keep wild animals out of their home haha, but the more you know!

Good one!😂🧡

Yeah I got some acquaintances to add to the sale. 🙄

Parents are the government (and some religious practices)…they restore order with the use of fear lol

@@MsBellasworld Yeah two years ago they really use a lot of fear not sure what they were stored they certainly sucked it to us with the fear

They actually don't eat ticks. That myth came about from one study that dumped a bunch of ticks on an opossum and then counting how many full ticks fell off in 24 hours. The people doing the study concluded that any ticks that didn't fall off must have been eaten. A new study that checked the stomach contents and scat from wild opossums did not find any ticks or tick parts.

We will!

They have a certain way about them

These are some of the healthiest looking ones I've ever seen.The ones around here look like they've been drug around by cats half the night.

it is too cute, ever held one?

OMG your cat is sooo cute!! Does your cat happen to look dead when she sleeps? That might make the opossum resemblance...

@@WildlifeCommandCenter @Wildlife Command Center Thanks!! ❤ I'll pass that comment along to her. Eerily enough though, she does look dead when sleeping - not all the time. But when she does, she's usually half-curled, with her stomach exposed and her paws folded into her chest. I know that's kinda horrible to write, but she manages to still be cute.

Some of those raccoons are just plain nuts. I had one that roamed around that was ok. It came up when I was eating pizza one night on my porch. I tossed a piece to it and it say next to my chair and ate it. It waddled off when it was done. It regularly came by whenever I was on my porch and just hung out. Called him Meatball.

@@smithsmith1956 That raccoon sounds cool. I’ve seen some that won’t back down when you’re just trying to walk to your door, though. They come at you, and you just have to back up, wait for them, then go about your business. They’re scary! That’s why I prefer opossums lol

@@smithsmith1956 I'm assuming you like Italian food🤔😂(Meatball..too funny!)

I Love most animals, but have seen & heard things about raccoons that make me kind of scared of them. I volunteered at a wildlife center in San Rafael (Marin County). Some raccoons were captured & placed temporarily in a crate. They were angry & aggressive and we were told to not approach them. A home owner once said they couldn't get a group of aggressive, feisty (I'm being nice) raccoons out of their back porch & yard enclosure, and had to call professionals. Heard stories of them drowning dogs. One near my home appeared to be stalking my cat. Here in WA, a neighbor saw one sneak up on a large, sleeping mallard duck, and though it fought hard, lost its life. 😥 (Neighbor not close enough to save it.) Raccoons were in my neighborhood for long time - heard they attacked people's cats (in fact heard frequent cat yowling at night during that time) I also think they went after a squirrel (maybe trying to protect its babies?) - heard defensive, fearful screaming for a while. (Pretty sure the poor squirrel lost. 😞) They frequented a short urban, wooded trail that I frequently use to get home. I encountered them on the trail & had to nicely ask "permission" to pass. My apartment neighbor had a family frequent his back porch area with trees around. He fed them & insisted they were harmless & didn't hurt his cats. Go figure. I think they can be docile when you're the local diner, but if you cross them they can get nasty and are NOT afraid of humans. Most people think they're darling & harmless, as I once did, but I've since become wary of them.

@@barbarahill9176 the issue there is that people feed them. That is what makes them unafraid of humans. Wild animals should be left alone and people just dont get this. I live in the country, have all my life and spent much time in the woods, and ive never encountered a raccoon acting that way. They wont even come close around here, but people dont bother them or feed them. Closest ive come to that is hearing one outside my tent while camping at the lake, and all they do there is get in trash at night.

Never gonna happen. Foxes and Coyotes wolves bobcats are a thing….peace is the last thing they’ll ever know in the wild..you watch too much Disney.

@@bennieboi7114 Bennie baby, I realize that living in the wild poses a serious challenge for survival. The natural animal kingdom food chain is what it is. What I meant and hoped, and forgive me for not being clear, is that maybe the rescue gentleman would be able to take the possum family to a sanctuary where it would be relatively safe. Whether that's the plan I don't know. Regardless, I admire and appreciate those humans that take the time to remove animals from potentially bad situations. What I truly wish for is the day that all animals are treated with respect, and that they NOT be abused by humans. Maybe I am a dreamer, but hope is everlasting.

That is awesome!

@@WildlifeCommandCenter Ok, but don't you think picking the Mother up by the tail when she already feels agitated and defensive and taking one of her kids away is pushing it. I don't agree that that was kind at all. the stuff afterwards was not known to me but for the whole video, your method wasn't kind. Thank you for saving them but please be more gentle and respectful in the future. if you had a kid and some strange men came up to you and that kid while you were already feeling scared and defensive and then pulled on one of your body parts to distract you and the other just pick up your kid and messed around with that kid how the hell would you feel?
