Ok dandoucette, grateful for the welcome! What help can I tell you here and also with your help.
Also, welcome to Project Noah. If you have any questions let me know.
No problem. If you have the correct ID, it would be great if you could edit your spotting and add in the new information, thanks.
Hello dandoucette, the method of this species was collected by camera trap. It was for an environmental assessment to select appropriate locations for mineral extraction. We have already made a prior identification, however, we are left with any doubt about the species. After sending the identification we made. Thank you for your attention.
Is this with a camera trap?
Looks like an Opossum, maybe a species of Philander.
