Yeah... I'd say opossums are probably way up there on the menu of any hungry yotes that happen upon one; their defenses are pretty much limited to looking vicious. While they do pack a pretty good bite, their movements are pretty slow and any self respecting yote would tear one to pieces in short order.

Not in PA, at least in my part of PA. When I bait it is not unusual to have numerous animals eating on the bait at the same time. I've never seen fox and coyote but have seen coyote, opossums, and skunks all eating the same bait. Likewise I have seen fox with skunks and opossum at the same time.

I would say yes to both questions, but I only have proof of one.
This proves nothing!!!!!!!
That is a small clearing and not "in the woods"

I was just wandering I got trail cam pics with a possum and a coyote in it. And I shot a possum about a month ago and nothing touched it but they been tearing up the deer carcasses beside it.

Can coyotes climb trees? Coyotes will eat anything that isn't on fire at the time.
When I was a kid our neighbor was a southerner. He and a friend would go out in the hills, tree possums with their dogs, sack them, bring them home and put them in a cage feeding them sweet potatoes for a couple of weeks. Then they'd kill and eat them.

Nope,as been said there would be no possums and I have yet to see any yote tracks around the possums I have killed during trapping season and tossed.I am talking 20 possums a season easy here in PA. Out of my 30 years of trapping I found no proof that coyotes eat possums. Possums crap green and let me tell you it does not smell good at all.Try catching a yote in a previous possum set when it crapped in that set. Good luck. I think the only thing that eats possums are crows and vultures around here.

And, other possums!
I've literally seen a possum stand in the road eating a pile of fresh green cow [beeep], looking at the truck coming, until we ran it over! I have literally seen them eat dead cows, starting at the anal orifice, eating the intestines first, while waiting on the remainder to rot, before eating it.
Could not pay me to eat a possum, no matter how many sweet taters you fed it first! Uhmmmm NO! I'd have to be starving to death to even remotely contemplate it!
