What noises can I use to get it to come to me?

This morning I was walking into work and I saw an adult opossum on the ground. I know they can play dead for hours on end, but it's clear that it was in the same position in the rain (which stopped about 2 hours ago).

It's on the sidewalk, and I work at a school and am concerned about am immature kid messing with it. If it's dead I would like to give it's body a peaceful place to rest. Can anyone tell from this picture anything?

I thought one of my opossum drawings looked kinda like corn so i drew another one and fused them and made the all mighty CORN OPOSSUM!

His name is Jeff)

This past couple days Florida has gone under atleast 5+ inches of snow (also my first time in 18 years ever seeing snow 🩷) But before that it had gotten pretty cold and i hadnt seen any possies beside one time but i was unable to catch her before she ran up a tree. So to see if they were still actively coming for food and shelter i put some cat food in their little house and it sat here for days till today i opened up the lid and IT WAS GONE! My outdoor cats either came inside or went in the garage so im pretty positive that it was a possum that ate the food which gives me hope that they made it through the snow and cold snap. Its still definitely chilly but not in the 30s anymore thankfully. Any ideas how i can entice them even more to show up? I really wanna see if they are okay.

We also ended up losing one down the road bc someone hit it. Pisses me off so much and im praying it wasnt my chonker though ik chances are high. The only thing good that came from his or hers passing is that the vultures in the area immediately got to work so I'm glad he or she continued to contribute to nature even after their unfortunate fate.. ☹️ please post ur cutest possie pictures in the comments if it lets you so we can continue ti appreciate their adorable species

I’m pretty sad right now. Around November my precious little possum friend showed up, and I felt utterly in love with her. Doing all the research learning about how to support them and so sad to hear about how short their lifespans were. it was my favorite part of the day to grab my coffee and then watch the camera I had set up with all her videos from overnight.

I live in the south so we don’t get a lot of cold but the last few weeks it’s definitely been colder with some small snow and ice storms. Totally out of the norm for us. She was coming almost every night, sometimes she would skip a night or two, but I think it’s been two weeks since she’s been here now and I’m wondering if she’s gone forever and something happened to her. 💔😭

I figured if it’s colder than normal, maybe she would skip a day or two, but that she would also be more in need of nutrients and predictable food so I’m not very optimistic but I’m just wondering if anyone else has had this happen.

This cute little possum booty pic was one of the last I got of her when I wanted to see where she was coming into the yard from. It was the cutest little trot down the path up to where I have the food set out for her. 🥹🥹🥹

Late in the afternoon… an early dinner!

It’s dropping down to 11°F tonight and tomorrow. It’s nearly as cold for the next few days afterward. Are there any household items that I can pull together to make a couple shelters?

And is there a way to help guide them to it find them?

New to drawing and first-time drawing with glue so no shade, please.
