A really bad one will be dripping or wet or have puss visible on the outside. Otherwise could be a limp either visible or able to be felt. If you're going to eat it, then not doubt you'll skin it,...
Check the arm pit areas for lumps and or puss. Pretty rare to find one and many regions are free of it now. Auckland and Northland haven't had TB in possums for decades.

Brodifacoum does and is readily available over the shelf and used on farms and (non DOC) parks all over the country. That is the one you should be concerned about.

Took my boys out this morning in the Alexandra thyme and tor country. I didn't cover myself in glory missing two magpies and taking 4 shots for the only bunny we got (I'm blaming their grandfathers...
