Almost everyone in Australia is familiar with the possum; love them or hate them, they are one of the most successful native animals living in suburbia.
Coming from Italy I had never heard of or seen this animal before visiting Australia and for me it was love at first sight; to me they look like furry cartoon characters. They have adapted very well to living in suburbia and are often found in roof cavities, or sometimes even in people’s houses looking for an easy meal.
As I travelled more in this country, to my surprise I realised some people hate this animal and living close to humans has created conflict between possums and people.
In conclusion, some people love possums, and some people hate possums, and some have just learned to live with them.
