Description: The colour of the Golden Brushtail Possum is a naturally occurring genetic mutation of the Common Brushtail Possum. Golden Brushtail possums are most commonly seen in Tasmania & can find it difficult to hide from predators due to their colouring. The Golden Brushtail possum diet consists of leaves, blossoms & fruit. When living in suburban areas, they have also adapted to other food sources such as meat items. These possums communicate by sound and scent. Screeches & guttural growls are used often, particularly in the breeding season, to ward off intruding possums near the nest or home range. Sound can also be used when a predator threatens them. Scent glands are used to mark home ranges & define occupancy of a home site.
