Fierce Forest Opossum on Alert
Deep in the twilight woods, a brave opossum stands its ground. With its sharp teeth showing and claws ready, this little creature is protecting its cozy nest. The forest is quiet, but our opossum is always attentive, listening for every rustle in the leaves. Bring the opossum and its lively world to life with your favorite colors, imagining what it sees and hears as night begins to fall.
FUN FACT
Opossums have long, scaly, hairless tails that are prehensile, which means they can grasp onto things like branches.

COLORING TIPS
Use a combination of coloring pencils and fine-tip markers to highlight fur texture and detail in the face and mouth. Experiment with layered shades of gray and brown for the fur, and use pinks for the ears, nose, and inside the mouth. Try adding a soft green or purple to the background for a dusky forest effect.
