    What do people do with possums? I got one in a conibear.

    Is the fur worth keeping? I am thinking it may just be coyote bait.

    Edit: looks like people keep the fur so that is good. I will process and put the carcus out as coyote bait.

    Lots more fat than I was expecting but the fur was in really good looking and way better than I was expecting.
    Salted and drying out now.

    JackHammer, you should make you a possum hat! Need to put the skull and jaw back in so you can have the teeth showing, and the tail on the back!
