I tried eating Possum once, never again if I have a choice.
If there are a lot around I usually euthanize them. If they are rare. relocate and release.
We had a plague of Hedge Hogs, I relocated and released 19 of them. The dogs killed another half dozen. Harmless animals, but they are a Flea and Tick hotel and spread the blood suckers all over the place.
I was cutting the lawn at a 90 year old lady's house. Some other old coot came over to yell at me for making too much noise. I usually do my releases in the woods behind his house.
