Possum Galore
A life ‘Down Under’!
Return of the Possum Killer.
So...this morning we found the remains of another Ring-tailed Possum in the shed. It has been quite awhile since the last incident where we just found the innards and skin/fur of the last unfortunate victim.Todays victim was pretty much intact from the shoulders up but there was little else remaining. We know that Quolls go for the head and from research know that Powerful Owls also remove possum heads. Powerful Owls are known for their ear piercing screams, like someone being murdered, but in the last three years of living here we have never heard one... thankfully! We think a fox would have taken the whole thing away so the likely culprit is a Quoll or possibly a feral cat.The fact that it was another Ring-tail is odd because we generally never see them about. Most of the possums we encounter and hear about the house are Brush-tailed possums.It is all a bit of a mystery.
Read it and Weep.
One of our great displays at the 'Book Cave' but which book did I add to it?
I hope I don't get into trouble!
