Unfortunately I've only seen them in the "dead for real" state, as sometimes cars run over them at night as they go about their nocturnal hunting. <BR/><BR/>When I was a child my cat proudly presented me with a dead mouse one morning when he returned home from a night of hunting. He didn't get a favorable reaction either!Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917331337767835985.post-23844304241823536382009-03-23T11:24:00.000-04:002009-03-23T11:24:00.000-04:00I would have loved to have heard Songwriter's scre...I would have loved to have heard Songwriter's scream!Tess Kincaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04889725786678984293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917331337767835985.post-61568414459146099502009-03-23T09:34:00.000-04:002009-03-23T09:34:00.000-04:00Pamela, I just realized that you are not on my sid...Pamela, I just realized that you are not on my sidebar; I will correct that right away.

On the farm where she came from, the cats always brought the dogs presents of mice, which Mol's mum usually ate before anyone could stop her. And a friend of mine once had a dog which ate hedgehogs!Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09764296105901909328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917331337767835985.post-22009408040220766872009-03-22T11:46:00.000-04:002009-03-22T11:46:00.000-04:00What a funny story!

Have never seen an opossum in the flesh and have only a vague idea (probably quite wrong) of what they look like, so am imagining something halfway between an otter and a badger - perhaps rather ferret-like.
