I've heard of "barking" but never tried it personally . Eating possum isn't high on my list , and I'd rather just shoot or deadfall it than try to lasso one if I were going to .
Kevin if you are going to eat a possum you need to catch it and feed it for a few weeks to clean it out before killing and eating it.
We feed em buttermilk and cornbread to clean em out.
