It took nearly twenty minutes to get this little one to leave the cage. It was more than confused. After googling how to encourage its departure, I used a squirt toy numerous times. After a while, this opossum which was playing opossum after I opened the cage, decided to leave, down the hill where it disappeared.
The cage is baited with organic produce. I hope to catch a raccoon, the medium sized one which has dug over one hundred holes in my yard. This has been going on for eight months. Throughout fall and winter and now - spring. After all, I am just passing through. I hoped this marsupial was, too. Apparently, there is good stuff in the yard. Good enough to dig ten inch holes.
Maybe night will be the night.
