The sleepy one was hissy when it got put back in the pen after cleaning it. The ones that lunge are my favorite. It’s soooo dramatic, and I have had a few bite me, but they really just want to run and/or makes themselves very smelly/poopy so you won’t eat them. As soon as I put them back and leave them be, the almost always go right to eating and napping again.
I remember reading that they release a foul-smelling odor when playing dead, I would be wary of that back end too 😭
And I remember seeing videos of tiny opossums hissing and acting tough. “But you are so smol and adorable!” I thought.
