Didelphis virginiana
small, probably young possum as it was a bit smaller than the one's I usually see. They have catlike size and features with a white face and pointed jaw. Dark ears and feet, overall greyish color to the fur. Tail begins dark and lightens up towards the tip.
spotted in west central ga.
Sadly this young possum didn't make it. I assume it was trying to get into my compost bin or was looking to forage in our yard when I let our dogs out one night.
