Didelphis virginiana
A light gray coat with scraggly black hair at the lower extremities. The face is white with black ears. The tail is naked.
I found this one sneaking around under the boundary hedge at 23:00 in the back yard of a Houston house.
I try to never think of any animal as disgusting, but these probably give me the most trouble with that. I have seen reasonably nice looking ones . . . . . but this wasn't one of them.
