    yip seen a few like that...the weirdest coloration we would get...and we had shite loads of possums on home farm was what we called tazzie devils...they were blacks with the pale cream markings normally seen on greys....Dad got one that had a purple hue to fur,he got over $40 from Dalgetys auction for that one..more than double the going rate.
    75/15/10 black powder matters

    I got a purple possum once in my traps a couple or 3 decades ago, cool looking animal.
