First Opossum
 
This is my first opossum I have shot. He was caught in a foot trap using peanut butter. Pretty cool animal.

Remember their good eating. Pare boil first their pretty fatty. Then sprinkle with red pepper & sage and cook on a cookie sheet with slices of sweet potatoe.

See my trapping pictures post for why I trap them. Hopefully I can prevent a cruel and long suffering death. Like that coyote surely was headed for.

Congrats on your first opossum, where I live, we usually have a good old fashioned 'possum killing every spring.

Well, its not secret that i'm not a real big fan of trapping but i'm not against it by any means, i do think its little cruel. I'll never do it but if other people do it then its their thing and i respect that
