Opossums make up the largest order of marsupials in the Western Hemisphere, including 103 or more species in 19 genera. They are also commonly called possums, though that term technically refers to Australian fauna of the suborder Phalangeriformes. Wikipedia

Ever seen a children's storybook called The King, the Mice, and the Cheese? Cute pictures, if a predictable story.
