Yes, possums eat bees if they belong to insectivorous marsupial species even though no, they do not if they number among the world's herbivorous or nectarivorous mammals. For example, the Virginia opossum (Didelphis virginiana) is not only an insect-eater but also an everything-eater (omnivore) of carrion and of birds, earthworm, frogs, fruits, maggots, mushrooms, snakes, ticks and vegetables. In contrast, the honey possum (Tarsipes rostratus) of southwestern Western Australia survives exclusively upon nectar and upon pollen.
