Possums are good shy creatures.
Even though they look like a big rat, I believe they
are not in the rodent family because
they have a pouch like a Kangaroo.
I am not sure what they would do if cornered,
because all the ones our big dogs have come in contact
with will play dead when they feel threatened.

Rocky has a night curfew because he
catches Possums. Little Pepper has found
them too, but she just barks at them.
