I have about three possums per square metre where I am. I hear them carousing across the roof nightly, one lives (and raises baby possums) in the blocked off chimney in the bedroom, and I regualrly hear them disputing territory in the back yard. I recently lost a staring competition with a possum sitting on the fence outside my kitchen window. I’ve also had a possum come inside the house on three separate occasions.

I’ve actually never seen a possum irl, so this video was very informative (and entertaining 🤣).
Wow really, never‽ Where do you live, may I ask? Here in suburban Brisbane, if I looked out my window more often I would probably see one every night.
I live near Jimboomba, so I should have seen them by now 😅 Might have to go out looking for them.
However, I grew up in New Zealand so didn’t really go outside that often due to how cold and wet it is over there.
