The crossword clue is "North America’s Only Marsupial," and the answer is "OPOSSUM." Marsupials are mammals that typically carry and nurse their young in a pouch, and the opossum is the only one found natively in North America. Specifically, the Virginia opossum is common in various regions, recognizable for its pointed snout, prehensile tail, and ability to “play dead” as a defense mechanism.

Unlike other marsupials, which are predominantly found in Australia and nearby areas, the opossum has adapted to diverse habitats across the continent. Therefore, "OPOSSUM" is the perfect answer, highlighting its unique status as North America’s sole representative of this fascinating mammalian group.
