Lucky ‘possum. Here, they usually get turned into food for the chickens. (Turn about is fair play?)
My “war” is with the groundhogs. My SIL semi-jokingly calls me “The Terminator” because I got called to remove/terminate the snakes in her chicken coop & I greatly decreased the squirrel population at our place (60 in 3 years, only the ones tearing up birdfeeders & garden - we were overrun). I’ve gotten sensitive about it so practicing “live & let live”, exception being groundhogs.
