Our pint-sized possum was quite persistent. We heard him hissing and growling under the house about 4 am Sunday morning, apparently in a dispute with the small skunk that has moved in. Sunday afternoon, he was back in the kitchen window. It was snowing, we were feeling slightly shack-whacky, and this is what happened. We hope to see him only at a distance in the future.
Some possum links:
