Best Answer

Possums are furry animals that are short and close to the ground. When a possum walks by, pollen can get stuck to the hair on its underbelly. This pollen can then drift off the possum while it is walking and wind blows the pollen off onto other plants, resulting in the pollination of the plant receiving the pollen.
