      They look pretty scraggly when they get older and will dig up your lawn... To eat ticks, slugs, and other actual pests. Idgaf about the holes in my lawn, the indigenous outdoor cat can stay.

      I love them. 🥹 They're like cat-rats, two of my favorite animals combined.

      They can get into your garbage. I think that's the only reason people consider them pests. They're not as as clever, determined, nor aggressive as raccoons though. If you feed a Raccoon, it will spread the word around town, and within a month you'll be like that lady who called 911 because 100 raccoons were stalking her. I've never seen more than a couple opossums together at the same time.
