    They will play dead and then all you have to do is hit them over the head with a shovel.

    I'll just open a new Bate's Hotel and Eatery.

    I think I'll first try using Fox Scent. I found some info that says possums are afraid of fox.

    He's pretty cute, and just a small one, would you really want to eat your neighborhood garbage eater?

    In real life, Possums aren't cute.

    Do you eat chinese food in chinese restaurants? If you don't mind eating stray cat, I don't mind eating Possum.

    Anyone remember the ROUS's in the movie Princes Bride? Opossums looks just like that, only smaller.

    Ugly little buggers!

    I don't think that means what you think it means.

    Some folks here in MS eat them. Our neighbors in Louisiana are famous for eating them.

    True story...I once saw a lady retrieve a dead one from the road. I just know she ate it. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would swear it doesn't happen.

    Are you sure its not an armadillo digging up the yard? They are famous for that.

    I have encountered a possum several times over the years. They were always shy and either ran away or hid behind the nearest thing and played dead.

    How would a person get bit? I did not think possums would be aggressive at all.

    I think I got some eating up my yard also, I saw some about 5 years ago. I havent seen any since but I got a lot of holes in the yard.

    We had possums and raccoons - they would eat the cat food. They're pretty darn cute and we had no problem with them or the raccoons...I can afford to buy my food so I never had need to kill one of the critters to eat. sammieswife.
