Go Macy!
Much more impressive than my collection of dead possums. I had one tonight that was up in the yard driving the dogs nuts. I didn't see what it was, just heard the noise so I followed it with the spot light and the .45. I found it, a huge possum, on the other side of the creek from me. It showed no fear of either the light or my voice, just bobbed its head around and shuffled back and forth. I had to set the flashlight down to take a shot and missed. Then the thing charged me and I dropped it as it hit the water (only a few inches deep at a natural crossing). I've never seen a wild animal that brave, I think it had to have been sick. I had to go get my rubber boots and a rake to fish it out of the water. I know there's all kind of wild things out in our woods, but if they don't know to run away from me or at least try to hide, they won't have a long life expectancy.
