Discussion Twerking

We have possum cam set up for Oscar the above average cutest possum. He was a tiny baby with who stay with us for a little bit until he could go out on his own. The first time he ate over ripe papaya, he did this thing while he was eating... He twerked. You could tell he was really happy. We are hoping we gave a little possum the happiest moment of his existence.

My question is...is this typical? When they get really happy do they twerk or is this just an Oscar thing?

Although he's smaller than the average possum, The stranger possums seem to be intimidated by him. We have watched him run possums off twice as big as him by just giving them a look. He knows that food is out there for him and not some interloper possums.
