Thread: Possum Traping In The Weekend

Sunday the 1st of July I set off to check my possum traps once again. I shifted them on the Saturday around some native bush about 2kms from home. I had 11 leg hold traps set and used some new bait I made up. Thanks to Hunter308. This bait was flour and curry powder.

When I arrived to my traps I had found that I had caught one in the first trap I set Then down the hill there was another two.


After I had plucked them all. I heard a motorbike coming so I ran to the track and got a ride with our neighbour to where dad was. When he had finished feeding the cows I got a ride back home with him. I put my possums in the freezer for my Granddads dog tucker. The next day I got another one. Now I have a good amount of fur and its only the start of the holidays.
