    Angry Possums.... in a cage

    So have been setting a cage trap in some local bush to try and clean out some possums who are wary of the Timms and other traps we have in there, finding it a pain in the ass dispatching rather uncooperative possums quickly - not cool to take the air rifle as too close to residential areas and no handy troughs or ponds to chuck them in. Not wanting to taxi them back and forth to home. If you try to haul them out by the tail they hook on for dear life and pretty hard to dislodge.

    Thinking of either:
    a. Rigging up a ss wire noose through a section of aluminium tube to try and haul them out without getting shredded to where the trusty possum whisperer can finish the job.
    b. Seeing if I can shake them out into a sack where I can pin them in place long enough to give them a wee tap on the head.

    Anyone else got some clever solutions to try?
