I just don't want my dad to find out about it... last time we had raccoons, he made a sling-shot out of wood and would go out at night and try to shoot them with rocks lol |
its a wild animal like a squirreled. The city would just be like "leave it" |

I have a bunch of fat ducks chillin' by the lake that surrounds my home, and I'm thinking of making one for supper.
I hear ducks are delicious. I've never tried. |

I honestly want to just leave it.
But I can't stop picturing that hissing possum I saw on the news like 5 years ago... ing huge teeth :nervous: yikes
Last night my bf and I came home around 10 and the thing was chilling under the boat in our driveway. HUGE eyes, long ratty tail
it ran onto the grass and up one of the trees
I have been using only the front door ever since
I'm probably thinking too sci-fi, but I'm scared it will jump on someone's head |

| opossums aren't dangerous unless cornered or rabid. They can be vicious little bastards when you get them cornered in barn or shed. They are also a direct relative of Fiddy Cent, You can shoot those bastards nine times and they still survive. I used to have to clear them out of the barn when i was younger. .22 wont do much to them unless you hit em square in the face. I found a .3030 or a .270 worked well. a 10 or 12 gauge shotgun worked the best imo. |

you can take the squatch out of the cave, but you can't take the cave out of the squatch eh? |

I don't understand but i'll consider myself pwned
Anyway
My bf has the adventurous imagination of a 12 year-old and he wants to chill at dusk tonight and see when it comes out and where it's coming from (tree, shed, roof, boat, etc.)
He also wants to take pictures
meh we'll see
I hope the thing is gentle |

| Do you freak out and post on the internet when you see other small animals like mice and rabbits? |
