Once saw a baby opossum in a field, probably an orphan. The little punk was not even five inches long and he was baring his teeth and hissing at me. One swift stomp and I could have killed the little bastard but I didn't.

Yeah, me and a friend trapped a possum once in a Hav-a-heart trap. That thing about them “playing possum?” BS.

I was driving home one day in a pretty good rain storm. I got off one highway to get onto another and this exit was a pretty long overpass. As I was reaching the top of the overpass, there on top of the concrete railing was a large, rain soaked possum peering down over the edge of the railing. It looked like it was thinking about jumping, and their eyesight is so poor, there’s no way he could see the highway some 30 feet below. I’ve always remembered that strange sight and wondered if he did jump.
