I found this young wild opossum on a branch on an apple tree in our orchard in rural Douglas County near Kellogg, Ore., early on Sunday, Oct. 10, 2010. Growing to about the size of a large house cat the Virginia opossums of North America are commonly called possums. Opossums, which are marsupial, were once a favorite game animal in the United States. (Credit Image: © Robin Loznak)
