Edit...nothing eats (dead) possums round here except where ive seen shrews eat them from the inside out in the dead of winter. Hollowed right out. But this was a fresh meal so maybe more delicious?

A cleaned-up, big possum skull can bring better coin than almost all of their hides for fur. Just don't boil it too hard, they tend to come part faster than a coon or yote skull...

But I like possum and seeing how we done stopped, what do you want for one?” “We ain’t caught him yet, just seeing if you wanted one.” -Goofy-
