My dog loves Possums

I came home from work to find a possum staring me down. This is the second time this week my dog has brought in a possum.

If you saw the teeth on it, I don't think you would've picked it up either. Now that all of my fellow youtubers have provided such an abundance of info, I may pick one up, if the opportunity presents. But seriously, thanks for the positive feedback. I just thought it was a funny video (with shitty camera work). I never imagined that it would get 50k

views! Thanks guys!

LOL -- "scurry away little friend!" I'd love it if, when you said that, he turned around and said: "I shall grant you three wishes for freeing me!"

PS. The proper term for what the possum was doing inside is "going tharn" :)

Is it some kind of rat? The mouth look so dangerous and cute at the same time.

Also you should note for future refrences opossums can not get rabies. There body temperatures will not allow that disease to survive in its body. long enough to make the opossum rabid.

Lol oh no it craped on the floor! When you said, "as you can see it pooped on the floor." I just laughed my butt off lol

@MindlessBehavior1440 Possums are actually really good! Its REALLY rare for them to be rabid, They are actually one of the CLEANEST animals! Scientist observed them cleaning themselves several times during ONE meal! They don't want to harm you. They will either hiss or growl or "play possum" (but they will play dead at last resort.) They are preditors to almost ANYTHING. Including snakes, birds, and EVEN dogs, cats AND humans. These animals are very misunderstood. :) <3

Im Am Scared Of These Things I Can Never Be Able To Stand By One I Would Be So Scared ! Only Way I Can Stand By One Or See One Is By Bring 21 Feet Apart From It Omg !!! Emotion : Freaked Out !! :(

Yeah, they are incredibly docile. When threatened they hiss and spit and carry on and even lunge but they rarely bite. They prefer to run away or play dead like this one did, which is a form of fainting. You would most likely have been able to pick it up and carry it outside with no problem.

@StoicObserverS

Well I don't know maybe the ones at your place were weird or something because opossums generally DON'T fight, they either run away or play POSSUM so I'm not sure perhaps your opossums were like rebels or something lol.
