possums are easy to catch lol i scared one time i jumped out of a garbage can and the possum jumped up then started to "fall over, dead" in mid air. i should have adopted him cuz he was cute anyways :P

It's nice to see someone treating a oppossum kindly for once. They are not aggressive animals and I've only seen them act aggressively when their lives have been threatened, and even then, they are far more defensive than offensive. I had a neighbor who smashed one so hard with a shovel one day that it not only killed the oppossum but broke the fence. What did the oppossum do to deserve this? Nothing. He just didn't like his dog barking at it on the fence.

@gateswildlifecontrol so i guess possums arent as vicious as they look. they are everywhere where im at and they get huge. i probably wouldnt have picked it up like you did unless i knew it was going to react like that, so thats a typical reaction? if ur careful you can just pick them up by the scruff of the neck? too many sharp teeth for me to want to try. thats my rule of thumb-if it has teeth, then it bites lol.you ever try to grab a fully grown adult coon? they'll leave u with a bloody stump

But what if there was his or her family that you removed him or her from?

@FruittisMaris Hi, I appreciate your concern. In Ontario, Canada we are required to only relocate within the animal's home range. Therefore this oppossum will continue to live close to where it was found, having continued access to known food and shelter. There would not have been any babies at the time of year (winter) when we caught this critter. BRAD

@mamaloochie Thanks for your kind words. We wish more wildlife removal companies were not just in it for the money. Take care!
