There are something like 130 species of marsupials native to South America, and they’re pretty much all different types of possums. The fossil record indicates marsupials may have diversified first in South America, then spread to Australia through Antarctica (when all 3 continents were part of Gondwana).
The monito del Monte is the closest relative of all Australian marsupials, but it lives thousands of miles away in southern Chile.
