Blackbeard has precise aim when he has to give up stability to
lunge for food. He has never scratched us, not even accidentally or
in a panic. At first, he was anxious about being petted anywhere near
his head, but he didn't seem to mind if his toes were petted. As he
got to know us, he was no longer anxious at all about being petted -
even on his head.
Blackbeard is more likely than the other possums to maintain eye
contact. [Sometimes his expression gives the impression that he is
lonely and searching for a friend, sometimes his expression seems
sensitive or compassionate. :>]
