Yes, opossums can carry rabies, but they are less likely to transmit the virus compared to other mammals. Their body temperature is often too low to allow the rabies virus to thrive, making rabies infection in opossums rare. While it’s still possible for any mammal to contract rabies, the risk of getting rabies from an opossum is quite low. It's important to avoid contact with wild animals to reduce the risk of rabies and other diseases.
