The video looked like something you'd see in a Monty Python or SNL script.

The only way I could get one out of my engine compartment was by pouring a bucket of hot water on it.

I was in NZ about 15 years ago. The locals took me hunting at night for these vermin. Their eyes shine like red candles. Had a heckuva good time!

Kind of reminds me of when Pelosi elbowed a small child out of her space on stage, and, years ago, when the execrable barbara boxer kicked a black child out of a seat on state at a political event.

Orangutans; dems.

Awesome possum. Actually they are voracious eaters of ticks. So they do serve some useful purpose.

“The hulking great ape then chased the much smaller animal up the pole and “started poking it with a stick.””


That is what we teach our grandchildren. “Don’t touch that bug!. Poke it with a stick”!
