    Well if it was a cat it would have had a nibble
    Any mustalid would have clinically killed it and eaten its way inside for a party
    And if it was a hawk it would have picked it clean
    I'm thinking out of the box and reckon itcwas another possum

    We will be back up planting in that block for the first week of june so will definitely be taking along the cage trap.

    No houses for miles !!!

    @BeeMan @Mooseman @Dundee What you guys reckon ?

    Another Possum?

    Definitely not a hawk, doubt a mustilid....

    Seen anything like this before?

    Maybe a stray dog just picked it up and shook the bugger.

    Went for a spotlight last night shot 5.



    Nice night, once the cloud broke up it actually was quite cold.

    Stash is building up





    Anyone got a current price?
    I did get a txt from BB last month saying they were buying but it didn't have a price.

    I'm hoping I can have quite a bit by the end of winter

    Went for a walk around the yard tonight with the 22. Shot 11, plus another from the traps this morning. Added to the 13 we got on Sat night with the kids, 24 possums for 1.9kg, so approx $220 for 2 nights aint too bad. haven't even checked the paddocks, the river, and several tree lines yet.

    Another 4 this morning, now a total of 28 possums for 2.15 kg. About $280 for a bit of evening fun.

    I reckon @akaroa 1 and @kukuwai hit the nail on the head, sorry its taken a while to catch up. I will hunt out some old pics of my pest op days, I snapped several pics of possums raping dead possums and fighting others in traps.
