    Leave the poor ole possum alone....the poor things only have a life expectancy of about two years...probably because they ain't really bright.

    Be careful...they have a mouthful of pointy little sharp teeth.

    they are gross. i've been in many-a-standoff with those oversized rats, one last night while biking, in fact. :eek:

    i loved my friend's comment, though: "how can you be afraid of an animal whose only defense mechanism is to play dead??"

    they are gross.

    awww...it's only a baby. One day I walked my dog and I look down and she has a baby rabbit in her mouth. I freaked out. Luckily she dropped it and it was okay. It's a good thing she didn't have it by the neck.
    These cuts are leaving creases. Trace the scars to fit the pieces, to tell the story, you don't need to say a word.
