attack opossum

[ed1838]

I never saw a possum attack and kill a rabbit till this morning. Then it went under my daughters old play house with the rabbit. Live animal trap is set I may have a family under there.

The raccoons are having none of it!

Until I whacked the lot of 'em with a shovel.

Every single one I've trapped in a live trap has thrashed so bad in there, they tangled themselves in the coils and died.

We had one that was fighting on camera with a coyote. Those things are nasty.

Possums and raccoons are a scourge out here where I live. I do, however, have the fattest buzzards you've ever seen!

One of my early memories is of a possum that I interrupted while it was eating a litter of kittens.

No quarter for possums or yellow jackets.

Also,

I see a red sash, I kill a man

A few years ago at my parents' house, we encountered a possum that was acting weird and aggressive. Not at all what a possum is supposed to act like.

Somewhat related, CCI Stingers cycle fine through a S&W M&P22.

subsonic rounds through a suppressor on a M&P22 is still louder than you'd like.

But, much quieter through a similarly equipped bolt action.

Good news is they do not carry rabies

The possum?
Or the Stingers?

Possum. Stinger could carry rabies if it smashed through a rapid animal i bet

Several years ago, one of the biggest ones I've ever seen was under my neighbor's porch. Grabbed my single shot .22 and couple Stingers. Put the muzzle about an inch behind its ear and fired. Hissed at me and bawled up in a corner. Second round was right between the eyes and dropped it. Told my neighbor maybe I should have brought my AR, that was a tough old guy !
