Timeline of significant postnatal developmental milestones in the life of Monodelphis domestica. Thalamocortical connections are formed between P5 and P12 (red). Peak cortical neurogenesis occurs from P14-P24 (yellow). Eyes open between P31 and P34 (blue). Opossums are separated from their mothers at P56 (grey) and reach sexual maturity by P180 (green). Their peak reproductive period is from P270-P365, and after P365 they enter old age.
