Opossums, like kangaroos, are marsupials. But unlike kangaroo babies (called joeys), there is no special designation for baby opossums. They are simply referred to as young. In Mumford's book Mammals of Indiana, he does refer to ';pouch young' to indicate the very early development stages that take place in the pouch, but once the baby opossums have developed toes and fur, they are simply called young.
