They are nocternal....
Some nocturnal animals that can be found in Boston include raccoons, skunks, opossums, and bats. These animals are active at night and are commonly seen in urban and suburban areas of the city.
Well, first off, let me say that this question is very creative! :) I like it! Opossums and owls are both nocturnal, which means that they come out in the night. As far as looks, they don't have anything in common. I hope that I helped!
Bees and opossums generally do not interact much, as they occupy different ecological niches. Opossums are primarily nocturnal foragers and do not typically pose a threat to bees. In fact, opossums can be beneficial to gardens by controlling pests that might harm plants, indirectly supporting bee habitats. While they coexist in the same environment, their interactions are minimal and largely non-confrontational.
Possums are the most common thick skinned marsupials on earth. Possums are also nocturnal animals by nature and tend to sleep hanging upside down.
Nocturnal means living by night. Many animals are nocturnal, such as bats, opossums, and fireflies. Man, or humans, are not really nocturnal -- our bodies naturally function best during daylight. Some people claim they are nocturnal because they like to stay up late -- but there are very few people who really live from dawn to dusk and sleep all day unless they have night jobs that force them to do that.

Opossums are generally solitary and nocturnal creatures known for their calm demeanor. When threatened, they often "play dead" as a defense mechanism, a behavior known as thanatosis. They are also scavengers, feeding on a variety of foods, including insects, fruits, and small animals. Despite their somewhat intimidating appearance, opossums are typically non-aggressive and can be beneficial to ecosystems by controlling pests.
No, male opossums do not have pouches like female opossums do. Only female opossums have pouches to carry and nurse their young.
The largest nocturnal animal is a part of the lemur family called the aye-aye. This animal has a unique way of finding food by knocking on trees to determine if grubs are within them.
Opossums are sexual animals.
opossums are usually quiet, but they hiss when they are scared.
Opossums have 4 feet - they are quadrupeds.
