They are great to have around your yard. Keep rats and other rodents away. Some people think they’re rodents but they’re not. They’re marsupials.
Yeah, rodents always have the gnawing teeth. Woodchuck, beaver, squirrel. Mouth full of fangs is something else.
Flea bitten vermin all of them
Not great to have around our property, eating chickens and all the ground dwelling birds.
@@meghan7547 I can understand that.
@@meghan7547 not very likely since these guys are nocturnal, and the birds arent.
I used to think opossums were ugly but after learning about them I think they are awesome animals. Amazing how they’re the only native marsupial in North America
imagine how scary life would be if opossums were much bigger than us in real life
WE MAY HAVE TO RUN FOR IT
It would have been extinct 😂😂
We humans are really OP
Bueno they are so cute
Yea tbh we. Human can do whatever we want to the planet
@@danielrzbro1717 so we kill the planet at any time
5:51 to 5:53 possum is twerking because master splinter taste so damn good.
My god dude some things are just better off not being said. I'm glad I'll never know what it's like to be as disgustingly subhuman as the likes of somebody like you.
@@shizmanbeat who cares
@@shizmanbeat I’m glad I’ll never be a toxic person like you
@@shizmanbeat I’m glad I’ll never be a pussy like you
@@shizmanbeat Im glad ill never be a loser like you
**Possum sees rat caught in trap**
_"It's free dinner!"_
Well, those pointy teeth ain't for tearin' up fruit now, are they? Lol.

If muncher is still looking for work send him my way ... tell him I'll even pay for his transportation and accommodations! 😁
What I dont think a lot of people know is Opossums are very big omnivores: they dont often hunt, if at all, but they'll eat *_anything_* they come across: fruit, nuts, berries, bugs and grubs, roots, trash, carrion, nothing is off the table for these things.
Actually they don't like canned cat food.
@@MaikeruT Hmm, I didn't know that.
I thought Opossums were the catfish of land, eat anything, the stinkier the better.
I saw one once, with it's head nearly buried in a dead cow's ass.
He didn't let a little stale cow shit stop him from his smorgasbord.
@@truthseeker2321 that sounds gruesome wtf? Up a cow’s decaying ass? 😭
@@3thalluing339 yeah, Opossums do that
I feed them my leftovers. :3
Gotta get that protein for winter.
so, the mouse (it's not a rat) never learned to stay away from traps after losing his eye in one?? guess thats the Darwinian way
They’re such amazing creatures.
When you don't find a mac donalds but you want to eat a mice meal!
Mickey and minnie has left the chat
😂
I love possums so much
I was waiting for something even bigger to show up and eat the possum! LOL
Opposum, get it right, possums are different species altogether that are in Australia.
...and poses for a selfie, lol. Those possom's sure are opportunists. He didn't leave Chris much for dinner ;) The narration on these vids is like a good old boy comic book. Great stuff as always!
Opposum, get it right, possums are different species altogether that are in Australia.
Makes me hungry just watching!
For some shreks famous mean rat stew
Had no Idea that oppossums ate rats...Good. When I see one from now own in my yard, I won't shoo it away.
They'll eat anything they can find, but I doubt they can catch and kill a rat, rat too fast.
Surprisingly strong jaws on that possum. They aren't aggressive and not known to bite, but a frightened animal will employ any self-preservation tactics it can, in order to survive. I wouldn't be testing an aroused possum. If one can chew a rat in that manner, then he can inflict a memorable bite.
They can, and will, I know.😉👍
Yes. Their bite can be brutal and thry get infected like cat bites do because of all the bacteria in their mouths. I've been bit a couple of times by my non-releasable adult male with no depth perception. He came to me to rehab as an infant couldn't be released. My girls were very gentle and were able to take live crickets or meal worms from my fingers without biting me. Such soft and gentle mouths, they love to lick, then rub on you like a cat when they are happy. If your really loved abd extremely lucky they will do the opossum twist for you after the lick, rub session. It's the CUTEST THING EVER! They are super cool animals .
possum was all up in that he was like YO free food LETS GOOOO shove me face all in that lil salt and pepper
they are paid actors (no they are not universal studios*
@3:10 the rat was marinated in garbage dump juices, a four seasoning blend of mold, mildew, bacteria and disease, no ketchup needed, 😂
I swear to god it looks like a human in a costume when it was cleaning its paws.😄👍🏾👍🏾
there is one that keeps cleaning my traps as soon as the rats are caught. I barely have to clean the traps.
So I learned today skunks and possums are omnivores not herbivores, every creature eats rat/mice
Possums and skunks eat lots of meat, and eggs. Anything they can get their paws on.
Eats a whole meal then cleans himself for round 2 because he knows he's being watched on camera
Thank you Chris again! This is a baby Possum or a huge rat...I have a huge rat problem in my backyard . I have 15 snap traps two live traps and a Nooski rat trap. When rats died I put them between my fence and neighbor fence. Several Possums walk between fences every night. I have a big garden rats eat Jalapenos, Cayennes Habanero peppers and tomatoes. No bait on the snap traps, I put traps base of the plant's they trapped themselves. Lol!
Opposum, get it right, possums are different species altogether that are in Australia.
@@cd3064yes thank you for saying something. I gave up trying to correct that common mistake. The word Opossum comes from the Virginia Algonquin tribes language. It was called aposoum, which means “white animal” or white beast in Powhatan. The only North American Marsupial.
Possums are a type marsupials from Australia. They have more than one type of marsupial.
He made Wingstop look bad
We just had one bust in through the door when one of the kids tried to go out the door and got into our basement.
I drop all my dead rats and squirrels in a corner of my yard- why waste them when the possums and skunks love them? My game camera shows that both possums and skunks wash their hands after eating
About lunch time here, gonna go get me a rat from a trap...won’t forget the ketchup with a little salt and pepper.
I love this documentary and your storytelling. You gave David Attenborough a run for his money😎🤌🏽💯
im sure we humans evolved from opossums.
😳
First time I’ve seen an opossum do a catch and cook video. Usually it’s just humans that make those types of vids. Also, and this just might be me but can anyone else hear Gordon Ramsay in their head yelling at the opossum for eating it wrong or not adding spices?
"Its RAW!!"
He probably got impatient and couldn't wait for Shawn Woods to put the good stuff out.
Me thinks, we need more possums!! In a way, this was sort of a Possum comedy!! Funny stuff!
He had a craving for Chinese food.
Well, that aged well
@@georgecostanza30 shit🤣🤣
@@georgecostanza30 XD
Great video! I have a deck and have found where this one pesky rat hides under. I’ve used traditional Vector traps and while they’ve gone off, I still observe the rat from my upstairs window. I ordered that rolling bar from Amazon and setting up in my shed but this rat...I can’t seem to get it with these two traps. Any suggestions?
Bend the metal stick (trigger). Just put a slight bend in the middle to shorten the rod a hair and the trap should be harder to set. So watch your fingers. But now it will be a hair trigger. Learned this from my grandpa and it has worked well for me, also.
Daniel Francis I will try that bud. Thank you for the tip!
Use glue
Move the traps around find out what it’s eating set thst on the trap and u a catch it
Or two cars feed them and they a get that trouble out the way
Chris......that was great! Possums sure are strange looking critters. We had 'em when we lived in Oregon. I caught a few in traps, but always managed to let them go....mostly missing a few toes I'm afraid. In High School, a friend and I thought of the perfect senior prank. We went out one night and caught three possums alive and put them in a gunny sack. Next day, we put them in a gym bag and took them into the lunch room where we unzipped the bag, left it under a table, and moved off to watch the fun.....sadly, the principle saw us do it! He walked over before the possums could come out and play, peeked inside, and zipped it up! We got called to the office and chewed out something terrible, threated with being expelled and a slow and painful death if we ever did anything like that again, and all that sort of stuff. On the way out the door, the principle said "Damn it you guys.....why did you let me see this? That would have been great!! But don't do this kind of shit any more!" Ha! He was really a pretty good guy.
LOL ! Good story, Muskrat ; thanks for sharing it. Nothing like great school memories of some good, clean mischief and mayhem : )))
@@northwoodsrat6686 Thanks! It would have been great if they had just come out of that bag!!!
Wonderful video footage. As a biologist, I just have to ask, "Is the Opossum using the trap as a tool or did it just happen to come across this opportunity? Very interested in seeing if he repeats this action or has done this in the past.
Thank you!
As a regular guy, I’m confident the opossum was the one that set the trap
Not opportunistic
I have one that has been cleaning my traps. I might set up a camera but the trap area is now part of his/her regular nocturnal pattern and he/she is clearing the trap every night there is a catch.
You ain't no damn biologist. 😒
Great video! Thank you!
Damnit boy the opossum has to be from alabama with chewing his food like that
The Opossums would always eat our trash cans at night in the morning the trash will be cans would be tobbled over
I prefer my rat with Tapatío. 👍
Why do i find possums super adorable?
big rat eating a smaller rat.
Lmao but ur wrong about muncher eating his rat plain every few bites he dips his rat in rat trap bait. Pretty smart to bait ur traps with ur favorite dipping sauce lol. Great video !
😂 Muncher was smart for doing that
This is wild ,an funny af!!This why u never see a skinny possum 💯🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Opossums like this one would make great pets, especially if you can train them.
The way he cleans his hands is ......
... oddly human like... and then throws in a spasm at 6:00 just for good measure 🤣
Ive been trapping them in my yard and relocating them, i think they may have got into my attic before , but after watching this...i might start releasing
You should turn eating part into an extended ASMR
By the looks of that possum that rat must have been finger licking Good
I guess it's better than his usual fare...😉
Sometimes takeout food sticks to the container, not that much different in the possum world. 😆
Geez possums are weird things. And you went camping with one.
Yep. Miss that lil guy.
I bet. But does Judy know??
they always start with the head. why? the rest of the body was very accessible yet they start with the head, which was trapped. i don't get it.
love these lil creatures...
Damn that’s pretty sad for the rat . Endure earlier hardship and lived on only to die again.
Would it eat chocolate or peanut butter?
Yep
Now I see why possum go under the house it makes since
Clearly, Mr. Possum, this establishment is not take out.
I needed a good laugh😂
This is what happens the trash eater eating other trash eaters 🎯🎯
I see possums everyday
Ratatoille part 2
That was fascinating and repulsive in equal measure.
Awesome Possum
That's awesome. 👊💀
I gotta possum in my bedroom closet right now. He's not very friendly either. I can't let him go because he got hurt by a dog when he was little. I call him bitey. Always wants to bite the hand that feeds him! Almost like a wild animal!
Scratch his neck.😉
That Muncher is better than Pest Control in my area.
For all you possum lovers that think they are cute. Uh not
One of nature's great scavengers.
What’s it doing at the end? The convulsions. What’s the purpose of that?
I don't know, it was kinda weird.😉
Beverly hills granny always talked about possum gravy
Another great video!! I loved it. Thanks for sharing all the good stuff, and enjoy your weekend buddy. It makes me hungry just watching. I bet it taste like chicken.😂👍😉
Go ahead possum eat that rat up.
i love opossum
What a beast hahaha!
Oh my fucking god “Gorging myself on fresh rat meat has the same effect on
me” so fucking funny!
What's with the mad chewing and body spasms at the end?
He ate the head first because a mind is a terrible thing to waste. *cronchi*
Guess all the slaughterhouse and mouse channel videos I watch lead to this in my recommended videos. RUclips knows their viewers...
Hungry SOB ain’t he!☺️
Sure is tough. I should have put it in my slow cooker overnight.
Text bullets are funny
This is almost exactly like Review.Brah
Damn. Sometimes it just bees like dat.
Ok I had no idea Opasome eats Rats......plus the sick those things eats they're own kind which I had heard certain animals do eat they're own kind
LOOK MA!!!
It's a giant mutant rat eating his little buddy!!!!
Bonnett Appetitueuxeoult ! (this is in French)
Opossums are awesome animals and should be protected.
GOOD BOY Muncher!😎😎😎
Idk if the rat was dead when the possum arrived
I don't think he cared.😉
Gruesome
i love this😂
yeah, rodents love to eat other rodents. they'll all eat anything their size (including cannibalism) or smaller... I'm glad the mouse didn't go to waste!
Possums aren't rodents, but you're spot on about the cannibalism. Rodents are the absolute worst
@@WobblesandBean close enough. it eats anything much more like a rodent than a koala, probably the American influence ;)
Part two is better when the man eats the possum.
Poor rat , coulda been used in a walk the plank video
Ayeeeeee he tryna throw it back 5:50
AHAHAHAHA
Holy shit Muncher ate Andy Weiser and even cleaned the remaining filth off at 4:45! ;-)
LMAO. I was thinking about you today, figured you were about ready to do some trappin.😉
@@ChrisGilliamOffGrid I'm getting ready to man but just like always, work starts picking up and I can't find the time needed to trap them. I'll get on them before too long though just gotta make the sure fire money while it's there.
It breaks my heart when I see a possum run over in the road. I've taken a few babies in the past to a rehabilitation center to be raised and released when I found them wandering loose and on their own. possums are omnivorous so I imagine he's going to go eat some fruit and veggies afterwards.
Rehab? Most people just shoot them. Not worth much. Horse owners hate them.
@@ChrisGilliamOffGrid
I used to own three horses here in Florida I don't know what your association with the possum and horses is they were never around my horses. In addition they're not considered nuisance animals like raccoons and coyotes. I am a hunter and a big time gun advocate but I don't believe in just shooting an animal for the sake of shooting it for target practice.
@@markanton2349 I have kept some, released a lot, killed a lot. If you're trapping Coyotes and have to remake a set day after day because of possums you eventually get sick of it. Turkey hunters hate possums too.
@@ChrisGilliamOffGrid
Coyotes are non-indigenous to Florida they have no purpose here and were brought here by accident because some idiot decades ago thought they were baby foxes. Florida in the past is mandated that they be removed. They're viewed much like feral hogs out west and here. They also tend to be rabid here because they eat the raccoons. They've inundated populated neighborhoods and attack household pets. we have tons of turkey where I live here in North Florida but I have no idea why turkey hunters would hate them other than possibly eating their eggs?
@@markanton2349 Yes. Exactly.👍👍
