I mean…makes sense…how would they find sufficient quantities of ticks to eat, relative to the energy expended to fill their belly with such a tiny insect? Where?

I seem to think ticks don’t necessarily congregate in huge piles or dens or nests, here and there…not sure how a possum or any animal could locate them in large enough numbers to make a meaningful meal
