Oh! Some people around here don't like possums. I suppose I just like to live and let live. I got into trouble today at the pub for saying that snakes need sanctuary from the floods as well. I occasionally play my music too loud for the neighbors.....but at least they don't beat me over the head with a shovel or swerve to hit me in their truck and yet my noise is much louder.  |
for your trivia of the day; possum pee is toxic to horses. they get into barns and pee on the stored hay, horse owners don't see any evidence of possums, feed the hay and end up with very sick horses. they are considered the worst of vermin on horse farms
