Yeah, so I'm going out my back door on my deck to light up my grill and fire up a steak in 28 degree weather, and I see for a brief moment this thing go off of my deck and into a corner by my fence. I naturally go down to see what it was, and I see this Opossum hissing and showing his fangs at me like you would not believe. From his actions, you could tell he wanted to take a bite out of me.
I don't know how to do spoilers, but if you don't want to see a stuck possum - don't look down.
This is not the actual picture, but this is a perfect example of what the pissed off possum looked like
I notice from the body and everything that this looks like the same opossum that has been wreaking havoc on my property for at least 2 years. Don't kid yourself - this guy is nasty, and I could tell that he would have loved to take a piece out of me if he could! Mind you, I have 2 Golden Retrievers and a small boy who goes out that door. I don't want any of them getting in the way of this creature; who knows what he might have...rabies?
He seemed to stay put in a corner so I took advantage of this. Yeah Mr. Opossum, you can go ahead and play possum, but you can't fool a broadhead coming at you. Sorry little guy.
