Answer 2

No type of possum lives in Texas. The Virginia Opossum can be found in Texas.

Some believe that possums and opossums are both the same animal. This is quite incorrect, however. The "possum" of North America is just a shorter name for an opossum, but true possums are different from opossums, and not related at all, except by virtue of both animals being marsupials.

Possums belong to the family Phalangeridae and order Marsupialia, while opossums belong to the order Didelphimorphia, although they are also marsupials.True possums are only found in New Guinea, Australia (including Tasmania), Sulawesi (Indonesia) and a few other small islands in the Pacific region, such as New Zealand, to which they were introduced.
