Possums and opossums look almost identical, however, they're different species. Possums are found in Australia, while opossums inhabit the US. It would be hard to believe looking at their photos, but these marsupials are generally disliked and considered pests.
I mean, come on, how could you not like them? Be it possum or opossum, they are both oh-so-adorable! What do you think? Vote for and comment on the pics below to let us know! You can upload your photos, too.

Love them, I have several brushtail possum families in my trees and I put out food for them all
My wife sent me a link to these so I know that she saw them. Im surprised I didnt hear her ooooing and awwwing from the other end of the house. She thinks they a precious and cute and I cant disagree. I think if she had a choice between me and having one of these to pet on, I'm afraid I'd be packing my bags. Couldnt blame her though cuz they ARE to cute for their own good.
