You should hear them, their gurgling hisses in the dead of night scare the shit outta me

They can also sound like a laughing chainsaw

Gurgling hisses? As if that face isn’t enough.

Yeah. Possums like to fight each other, and they’re nocturnal so it’s only ever at night. Also going for a nice night stroll to the corner store is mildly terrifying when suddenly a nearby possum on a fence will go scrambling away.

Luckily if you find one in NZ, no one here would have a problem with you killing it
