Maybe Didelphis marsupialis? Looks similar, black line on the forehead and black ears.

    Thanks! Looking them up in both Bing and Google images, I'm wondering if there are either a ton that are mislabeled or these guys just have way more color variation than I'm used to in D. virginianas.

    I totally forgot just how many Didelphidae there are in South America. Thank you for sharing the photo with us!
