📰News 🦝 Possum news (and memes)

[Juggs]

yeah when I was a kid I had heard about playing possum so I cornered one in our yard and it hissed and charged at me, probably rabid

ran inside and my mom told me what a dumbass i was lol

In my 20s my dog got ahold of one in my backyard. There were no visible injuries but it was just laying there. I completely spaced out about the phrase "playing possum" (I was very high) so to make sure it wasn't suffering I bashed it with a shovel. Oops.

Bashed a couple with shovels. Along with several baby ones who found momma dead a couple hours later and nuzzled under her. I came back after taking the kid to school to bury it and it turned into whack a mole on the 4 or 5 babies.

Nope, I don't feel one bit of guilt over it.

This is a little old, but… I could use a raccoon like this in my yard.

What would Juggs do if instead of possums he had badgers. I bet those fuckers are mean.

 

[RIP]

I wish that little guy fucked them up.

Had a dead young racoon in my yard this morning. Didn't look like he was attacked by anything.

Country folk are fearless I've been out of the country too long, I'd have filled that hole with gas and threw a match in it.

Chick looked nice though.

Starting to use more possum hair for fly tying. We stuffed a possum ass first in a neighbors mailbox, was told the mailman opened the door, possum said what’s up, mailman hauled ass out of the mail truck.

That’s all I can contribute to the possum thread.

A tangent:

Raccoon stuck to railway by his testicle rescued by railway workers

A railroad worker from Georgia, USA, saved a raccoon after the animal became frozen to a railway by the hair on his testicles in -12C (10F) temperatures last December.

So my next-door neighbor's cat got out and he put traps out to try to catch him. He's had zero success and it's been like 3 weeks. The cat is still alive because we see him almost every day - he's just very skittish and impossible to catch.

Anyway, today my wife was out in the garden and heard the trap go off. Inside was a big fat possum. Should we keep it as a pet? Drown it? Let it go?
