The Agile Gracile Opossum is a small marsupial mammal from South America. It leads a nocturnal lifestyle in trees and bushes and is distinguished by high agility.
The Agile Gracile Opossum differs from closely related species by its more slender body and its excellent ability to climb thin branches. It is important for nature because it controls insect populations and helps spread plant seeds.
