Possy — Black

Black possums are primarily nocturnal, meaning they are active at night and rest during the day. This behavior helps them avoid predators and conserve energy. They are omnivores, feeding on a diverse range of food sources, including fruits, insects, small animals, and carrion. Possums are also known to raid gardens, crops, and pet food dishes, which can bring them into conflict with humans.

The black possum is listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List, indicating that it is not considered to be a threatened species.
