摘要：
The common brushtail possum (Trichosurus vulpecula) is a readily accessible marsupial that has been shown to adapt relatively well to captivity. The aim of this paper is to outline the husbandry procedures, experimental equipment, and methodologies used successfully within our possum colony since 1995.
