This may be an odd question but does anyone know anything about opposums? I live in the city but we still have wildlife. I live around 30 yards away from a creek so I especially see wildlife, ducks, coyotes, raccoons and as my post is entitled, opposums. I saw a baby opposum hiding out in my backyard this morning. My wife says that they’re always with their mothers so this one may be lost. Do Mother opposums leave their babies to go gather food? Should I do anything? I went to look where it was hiding and I don’t see anymore it or it’s Mother. There are multiple places they can be hiding so I’m assuming they’re still back there.
