Hubby called while I was out running errands today. He had been in the garden for collards and noticed what he first thought was a snake. Upon further inspection, discovered that it was a tail. And there was fur attached to the tail. Then the fur disappeared into the dirt.
Apparently, Elmo caught another opossum, dug a pretty big hole and buried him. We're not sure if he met his end with Elmo, or if he was playing possum and Elmo buried him alive. Either way, it is strange that only the tail is left showing. Maybe it is so he can find it later? Or maybe it's because he couldn't get the tail buried for the twitching.
At least we have some fertilizer.
