Hunting & Skinning my first Possum

Possums were introduced in New Zealand and are a pest menacing local birds species and native forests as a whole. Even tho they are pretty darn cute and basically harmless for most of us, they actually pose a threat to the environment in New Zealand. This was a great opportunity to exercise my hunting skills... at night, with a pellet gun... and also to try to skin my first ever animal, to hopefully honor its beautiful fur in one way or another...
