Lemurs and sloths hang by their tails.
They are called tails. ie they hang by their tails.
True possums from Australia and the surrounding islands do not hang by their tail.They are quite different from opossums which also are too heavy to hang by their tail.Both possums and opossums have prehensile tails, which means they can curl around branches and cables to give them extra grip and support.
As hooks to hang from branches
yes ,there could be bones on the tails.it depends
No! Bats don't have tails at all. They are no different to any other bats. They are just small brown ones!!
tails cannot curl
Most monkeys do not actually hang from their tails, but some kinds grip onto branches with them. Monkeys use their tails to balance as they are walking and climbing along branches on trees.
no opossums do not sleep hanging by their tails really they dont even hang by their tails they use their tails to stabilize them- self while climbing a tree.
No. This is a myth. True possums, which are marsupials of Australia and surrounding islands, do not sleep hanging from a tree. Nor do opossums, an entirely different creature whose name is often shortened to 'possum'.
They wrap their tails around something stationary and hang onto it.
Only when mating. Most of the time they hang on to plants with their tails and blend in with the scenery.
There are other mammals that do this too. An example would be a sloth. Many primates are also able to hang by their feet.
