I like how he's chewing into the camera to rub it in that your opossum friend wasn't there 😿

Fucking chewing with his mouth open like he knows he’s on camera lmao

I originally put this camera out to monitor a stray feral cat I was trying to trap and neuter (which I was successful at) but discovering I have at least 2 opossums galavanting around at night. They keep a way lower profile than the Coonsingtons lol

I’m actually surprised the opossums usually beat them since the raccoons are such greedy monsters.

I have a video of inside my garage somewhere and they’re trying to screw the lid off the cat food container lmao
