All of nature has its place. June, I wasn't "bad mouthing" the possum, just some known facts. We can all make our own judgment as to which of natures creatures we want to be in contact with.
Edit to further explain. I have chickens that we raise for fresh eggs. My thought was that I wouldn't want to encourage them to eat where my chickens eat, or eat their feed. But I realize that's just me.
Okay, that's all I will say about this. I don't do thread conflict and not interesting in a battle of words or opinions.
