They could both be Omnivore. (Meat & Veg eater). Possums, Rats and many more are Nocturnal animals.

This is just my opinion so it isn't the 101% correct answer, But this is quite reasonable. Happy to help. CHEERS!

Why is a platypus diurnal?
Most species of Australian mammals are nocturnal, and this is usually an adaptation over time to help them avoid their main predtaors, which are birds of prey and snakes. Platypuses are mainly nocturnal feeders, and can usually only be observed at dawn and the in the very early morning, and dusk/late evening. This behaviour is known as "crepuscular".
Are wolverines diurnal?
In short, yes. Although technically they are both diurnal and nocturnal. Wolverines are on a 4 hour cycle. What they do is nap for 4 hours, then venture out, forage and hunt for 4 hours. At night they sleep more than hunt because their eyesight is not as good as other nocturnal animals (ie. raccoon). Trappers of wolverines have better luck in the daytime due to this and usually put new traps out at night to avoid being seen.
