Southern Black-eared Opossum (Didelphis aurita)
Author's comments:
Junto a Pablo Meoniz y Andrés Teran, salimos de noche por la 101 y vimos este ejemplar, bastante confiado deambulando por la ruta, nos acercabamos con el auto y el seguía corriendo sin meterse en la selva, sin hacerse problemas.
Al ser una noche de llovizna, la vegetación y el piso mojados, por lo que el ejemplar también se encontraba mojado.
