Vermin is right. Possums, coons, skunks, they're all disease-ridden, thieving pains in the ass. They like to take up residence in my barn in the winter and eat my corn and crap all over my hay. I say terminate with extreme prejudice. Shovel, pitchfork, crowbar, whatever's handy. I usually drown the skunks, though. No sense taking chances.

Chicken stealing, bitty eating SOB, add a jar of John Boy and Billy's BBQ Sauce and have at it. Reminds of me of the Darling Family's Annual 4th of July Picnic fixings on Andy Griffith show.

My ex had a garden. Home early one day, saw this white thing scramble from under a low deck. Okay, wife's been complaining about plants being eaten...must be the woodchuck.
I bought a havahart and finally trapped that white thing.
Told the wife I took care of it, but it was really rat looking..."That was a opossum!". "Oh" says I. "But it came
out from under the deck..."
For those that need to know: Broccoli for woodchucks. Peanut butter for squirrels, cats, skunks, and um, opossums.

"Vermin is right. Possums, coons, skunks, they're all disease-ridden, thieving pains in the ass."I was walking in the woods of southern Indiana when I was a teenager and came across a dead feral hog or wild boar. I didn't get too close because it was very pungent and I noticed the body cavity seemed to be moving. I thought it was maggot infestation. Wrong! I shot the carcass with my .410 shotgun I had with me and about a dozen possums ran out from the rectal area of the carcass.
I later learned from my Grandfather that the avenue of choice into a carcass for a possum is via the rectum. They eat their way into the good stuff.

Wonder if they will eat jawbreakers or bubblegum like prairie dogs? Dad used to feed the prairie dogs one of these because it killed them.

” I usually drown the skunks, though. No sense taking chances. “
My GF’s son shot one and left it sitting beside the central AC unit all night.
The next morning was pandemonium in the house.
