RE: The Opossum: Hands Like a Primate and Smarter Than a Dog

Hello,
Thank you for commenting.
I'm surprised to hear you find a male and female together, or almost together. They are solitary. Female goes into estrus almost spontaneously and after they mate, the male is supposed to move on. You are smart to call animal control. I've read that in many places it is illegal to relocate the opossum by yourself.

I'm glad you don't harbor animosity. I think they are cute, but recognize they are wild and respect that. Still, I kind of like them :)

I had two attic invasions. Both times I caught two opossums. Although, to be honest, I couldn't tell you if they were male or female. They would hiss at me from the trap, so I didn't attempt to investigate.

I know a girl who thinks they're cute too. They're just not my cup of tea.
