Opossums have a few natural predators, including coyotes, foxes, and large Birds of Prey like hawks and owls. Additionally, domestic animals such as dogs and cats can pose a threat to them. However, due to their unique defense mechanisms, like playing dead and their ability to remain motionless, they often evade predation. Their relatively low population density also helps reduce predation pressure.
