    Humane dispatch of possums

    I was wondering what methods you use to dispatch possums when they're still kicking after being shot? It happens sometimes and while i know the standard method is to whack them over the head i'm not overly fond of it, just a bit too brutal for my tastes. Not a fan of putting another shot into them at close range either, seems a little iffy.

    Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
