There have been opossum sightings through the years in the Park (hence its own EVG opossum tag).
And now some facts about these members of the marsupial order Didelphimorphia:
Opossums' diet includes all types of bugs and insects, including cockroaches, crickets, and beetles. They also eat mice and rats. Nocturnal opossums are attracted to neighborhoods by the availability of water, pet food left out at night, and overripe, rotting fruit.
Odd that opossums would be attracted to this neighborhood — as we have none of these things!

Opossums never wash their hands after going to the bathroom

Hey some of my best friends are overripe, rotting fruit!
@12:17pm...Well considering there are no bathrooms in the park....
The new neighborhood heroes! I detest rats and mice so I’m praying for an opossum population explosion.
I was sitting on my stoop near 1st&1st at 1:30am last night and a huge Possum strolled by. I didn't have my phone on me, so no pics:(
I saw one last night on 1st St.
