Author Topic: Wild Opossum in my backyard nearly attacked my foolish mom and my two loud dogs  (Read 1853 times)

[2:02:27 AM] Planr: so there was just a big opossum in my back yard
[2:02:32 AM] Planr: our dogs were barking like crazy
[2:02:37 AM] Planr: its 2 in the morning here so
[2:02:39 AM] Planr: awful time, plus i have school tomorrow
[2:03:03 AM] Planr: my mom had the delusion that people were going to shoot our dogs because they were making noise... she's a bit unrealistic and paranoid. its an expensive suburban country club neighborhood.
[2:03:13 AM] Planr: she wouldnt even let me call animal control
[2:03:33 AM] Planr: but we had to get the dogs out of the backyard
[2:03:36 AM] Planr: so we could go to sleep
[2:03:37 AM] Planr: so yeah
[2:04:05 AM] Planr: i brought a large kitchen knife out just in case the opossum attacked her and she needed help
[2:04:17 AM] Planr: brought laser pointers and a nerf longshot too to try to scare the animal away or something; idk
[2:04:31 AM] Planr: she was out there in sandals and pajamas trying to lure our dogs in to the house with an opossum baring its fangs 2 meters away from her

tl;dr, what a way to end the weekend.

anyone else had any wild animal encounters lately?

a dog killed my twelve cats and hurt my mom.!!! 111


a loving nerf gun. loving really. forget that, id rather have two kitchen knives then a freakin longshot.

An opossum? Like, this?



How did that nearly attack your mother and dogs? Are your dogs baby hamsters?

i dont know about you but i'd wrestle whatever animal has the balls to come into my property
lame ass forgeters

I had an encounter with a fly yesterday.

I barely survived the epic battle

Opossums suck stuff at fighting so they act scary to compensate. It wouldn't actually fight anything unless you cornered it lmao

did any of you ever seen a possum's teeth?

tell me how that doesn't atleast makes you flinch

Use the strongest pellet rifle that you can find. You sound more like a country kid though, use a .22 or 20 gauge shotgun.

Those dirty creeps can pack a punch.  I was quite certain that they would play dead as first resort, but maybe if cornered it would try to fight.  In the mid-2000s, I lived in an 80-year-old house in a ghost town.  My mom was letting one of the dogs out to the grass on a leash in the middle of the night when the dog saw an opossum.  It pulled hard enough to get free and ran after it, but the opossum just fell over and acted dead.  The dog ignored it then.

Possums are the creepiest mammals imo

No you wouldn't
yes
i would wrestle whatever animal gets to buenos aires
i am the hero buenos aires needs
but not the one it wants
