I ran into this baby opossum on the campus of the University of Texas, Austin. He was probably the tiniest opossum I have ever seen. This cup he is investigating is a small styrofoam coffee cup. Imagine that! Opossums are the only marsupials native to North America.

I believe they can be even smaller!
i ate that opossum.
If you feed them lunch meat they get huge. At least the one who lived under my porch in college.
