    Can you elaborate on the Opossum species you mention here? For Europe would these be the same 5 listed on zootierliste? Then the additional 2 in America are Common Opossum and bare-tailed woolly opossum?

    Honestly I can not tell since I am not familiar with scene, and rather just scrolled thru social media so therefor I can not state if the two d be the same specimen or potentially an extra pair.
