It’s kind of like the witness protection program
for possums.
Instead of being beaten to death with a shovel or left to die in a compost heap, Possum Relocation Program (or PRP) enrollees are instead transported in an empty Huggies box and unceremoniously hucked out into a patch of woods.
Bitey here is still trying to decide if he should get in on that deal.
Wow that thing is scary looking!
Ummmm…
That possum looks mean. I’ve never seen one with it’s mouth open, ready to attack before.
I’m having a tough time imaging you even feeling safe taking these pictures.
I vote for the shovel treatment… sorry…. they are PESTS!! LOL
Geez, that’s scary. My parents have a lot out by their house, but I’ve never wanted to get that close before. My brother once killed one with a bb gun. I felt bad for the poor thing.
Looks like my mother in law. Uncanny.
LOL I LOVE AUNT BECKY’S REPONSE OH MY THAT WAS HILARIOUS
funny, I just a smooshed possum on the road the other day and realized I’ve never seen one before in Maine. Does dead count as seeing one?
Ok, so it looks scary and mean, but it’s actually kinda cute. And it made me laugh.
holy crap that thing is evil.
Oh Aunt Becky, you kill me!
And yeah, Possums are the devil. The only thing worse are spiders. *shudder*
eek!! That things looks EVIL! I would hate to cross it… I never thought possems where that scary looking.
Evil? It is a sweet little possum. It would make a great little pet. You could teach it tricks. Like “Play Dead”. See… it is working already!
I have seen a couple of possums out in the back in my life, but never one who seemed as scary as yours. Wow.
Definitely needs to be a part of the relocation program. I’m thinking relocated by huggies box, or relocated to heaven by means of quick, relatively painless transportation. Please no one send PETA after me.
