Fresh possum crap when you remaking the coyote set he decided to step in. He must not have got the memo that he wasnt supposed to wander that far from cover.

Always, ALWAYS, take a dump in the truck if you try to bring them home. Got tired of the mess, they stay right where I caught them!

Maybe they have been eating dried squid from the oriental food store.

I would rather skin a skunk. Possum have a nasty garbage like odor to them. I can't imagine people actually eat them.

I don’t think it’s the cold. I was getting tires put on the rig in north central MN a couple years ago mid morning and looked out the window of the place and watched a possum walking up an ice covered creek. It was 13 below at the time.

Caught many and never noticed a smell. Seems if I catch a possum first a coyote is always next.

If that was true here we'd be rich off all the yotes. Lol. Been catching them since I was a kid. Sometimes got to weed them out early in the season, so when other fur gets good your sets aren't plugged up
