Miss_Alice:Benevolent Misanthrope: Ceiling Moran: Why does it look terrified?
I was just thinking - it doesn't look very happy at all about the whole "petting" business.
Correct me if I am wrong, but aren't possum supposed to fall into a rigid state when frightened?
/He looked pretty content to me, wasn't hissing and such. //Know nothing of possums
never seen one "Play Dead" as it were but I have had them hiss at me and do a half hearted charge at me. They are just extra big marsupial rats. I am pretty sure the "play dead" thing is an old wives tale.
I've never seen a possum before, but I've kept rats since I was a kid.
...It's a gigantic rat. Which, according to the immediately following video, "Pet Oppossum Complains", makes a godawful noise when it's unhappy.
I mean, it's kinda cool looking, but...I'll stick to my rats, thanks.
/"Perhaps the most misunderstood creature" my arse. //Rats get a much worse rep, and they make genuinely friendly pets. Hell, mine are even bossy for attention
