Oh my yes. If you corner one they will bite to get away. They have very sharp teeth and know how to use them. mostly they use there claws as they are more affective and are rasor sharp but the mouth is always an option

Do possums bite?

True possums of Australia do not bite. They may scratch in self-defence or if cornered, but will spend their time avoiding people or domestic pets wherever possible. Many people call "opossums" by the name "possums". Regarding these animals, if they get the chance and feel the need, they will bite. Circumstances under which they will bite will be only in defence, if they feel threatened. DO NOT approach, annoy, provoke, touch, or otherwise fiddle with a wild possum. They are not cuddly, they are wild animals and will hurt you very badly if you try to pick them up. There is no concern about rabies in possums. True possums, which are found in Australia, cannot carry rabies, as there is no rabies in that country or in New Zealand, to which the possum has been introduced. There are confirmed cases of North American Opossums infected with rabies, but these incidents are exceedingly rare.
