Post #280,344 by Andrew Grygus 4/2/07 1:28:22 PM Reply	Yes, they are dangerous. They have sharp teeth and crushing strong jaws. Further they are tough, kind of like a football partially inflated with water and chicken bones - and they're just too stupid to know they are dead. I've dispatched plenty of possums with my trusty Swiss army knife, generally at 2:30 in the morning when they've managed to get into the pigeon coop, and believe me I'd rather not. The carbine would be a lot safer but it tends to disturb the neighbors more. In any case, it is illegal to be a possum in the state of California. Swiss Army knife.

Broke both its legs and pelvis. I dispatched it with a shovel; while it was still trying to go (which was a truly sad sight to behold), there was no way it faced anything other than a lingering painful death.

Many of the dead have finished being dead without the assistance of medical staff or fancy equipment. It would be good if people could help with the swift opening of bags that are wiggling and/or noisy.
