POSSUM
OH boy here in little "peaceful" ol NZ, people's eyes go grey at the mention of that word. They are the arch enemy here. We have a possum fur trade here...
They were brought in by the early settlers for their fur. Their population soon exploded however...no predation.
With that population explosion the indigenous trees started to suffer. They feed on the new growth tips and that kills the trees. Beautiful trees hundreds of years old have dissapeared and its a continued fight to try and save what is left. People in neighborhoods even trap them as they are everywhere around here. One stopped me in my tracks (scared the hell out of the dog) one dark night when I first heard its unearthly sound.
Yeah I don't blame the possum (beautiful creature), but I LOVE and treasure trees more.
I discovered the benefits of possum/merino wool socks and gloves. Possum fur is a hollow fibre
Even better is the fully hollow fibre possum/alpaca socks
My local Alpaca shack

In my corner of the world, they wear shorts with hoodies. Weirdos.
New Zealand wasn't made to have any mammals. Pesky humans messed up the joint.POSSUM

Maybe you could beg them to apply the discount to your order. A vendor did that for me once.dagnabbit, I did just order over $100 last night.
Ya gotta love Vegas where the boobs are fake and the buttholes are real. LMAO!
I really hate it and at the moment it's really debilitating....but hey thanks for that
No, they did tell me it was permanent with gradual improvement if you were lucky. Was yours due to chemo too?
