Is it a wrinkle raisin eared glider?! LOL

I think it's a CRINKLE raisin eared glider hehe It does look like some sort of glider..

LOL

Its Cute in an ugly kinda way

It's the brand new Ginger Haired Sugar Glider straight from home breeders here in Texas. NOT! keep guessin.

Can I tell them Pleeeeeze

LOL

fruit bat?

I don't think bats have wrinkled ears...no clue what it is but it's cute!!

Would it be fruit bat

I cant see it from here... I'll have to check when I get home!

Its a fruit bat.

Fruit bats don't have wrinkly ears and I don't think their whiskers stick out that far. The muzzle looks a little too short to be a fruit bat too. Eyes don't look the right size either.

My guess is a Coppery Brushtail Possum

Some of you have gotten very very close; JUST KIDDING! Way off, keep trying!

We need a hint!! LOL

are there any marsupials with wings?

Ok, that was a misdirection and is no fun. It doesnt fly and it is a marsupial! Get out your Australian fauna books and try to find it. Bet you cant!

my good friend Google doesn't seem to think so

Amputa?

bandicoot???

Looks I stumped all of you marsupial lovers. Well, my reference to Australian fauna was most certainly a misdirection.

This beautiful animal is a Caluromys Philander, commonly known as the Woolly Opossum. Like all wonderful oPossums, there are a few varieties and colorizations and such. My favorite is the ginger of course.

These opossums are found in Brazil, French Guiana, Guyana, Suriname, Trinidad & Tobago and Venezuela. They are uncommon but not rare in the wild, and while not endangered they may be near threatened. Their body size is about 170 grams. (Olifers, 2004). The longest recorded lifespan in captivity is 6.3 years (Carey & Judge, 2001). They can have at least 3 litters a year of 1-7 young. Their 25 day gestational period may be the longest of all opossums. Nursing lasts 3 months and weaning occurs around 4 months.

Well, that explains why my searches for Australian Fauna for 2 1/2 hours let nowhere!! LMAO I learned a ton though so I guess it wasn't all for nothing!!
