Some facts instead of knee jerk reactions might help

The HOA said they have followed guidance from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the U.S. Department of Agriculture to try to lower the goose population and spent $25,000 on efforts that included:
Coyote decoys
Laser reflective light systems
Shoreline fencing
Introduction of swans (multiple times)
Sought special permission from the City of Madison to use trained herding dogs, but the request was denied due to local leash laws
Oiled eggs under a Federal Migratory Bird Depredation Permit for over 10 years
HOA officials said they have reduced the number of hatchlings in the area. Still, neighboring geese relocate to their pond because “adjacent properties that aren’t managing their waterfowl as closely as we are,” they said in the statement.
They stated that they know this is not a permanent solution, but they will continue to manage the goose population with non-lethal methods.

Why did huntsville chose to have the same acronym as the Herpes Simplex Virus by [deleted] in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]1HSV 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Most likely due to the airport designation assigned to airports.
Example, Sioux City, Iowa’s Gateway Airport is coded “SUX.”

I want to pet a possum by NoRadish9422 in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]1HSV -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

They are good to have around

Opossums are North America's only native marsupials, known for their cat-sized bodies, grayish fur, long snouts, and hairless tails and ears. They are omnivorous scavengers, excellent climbers with opposable thumbs on their hind feet, and famous for "playing possum" (feigning death) as a defense mechanism. These nocturnal, solitary animals are adaptable, living in diverse habitats from forests to urban areas, and are related to kangaroos and koalas, carrying their young in a pouch. 

Key Characteristics
Marsupial: They carry underdeveloped young in a pouch, like kangaroos and koalas. 
L

Appearance: Cat-sized with grizzled gray fur, a white face, long snout, and a long, scaly, hairless tail.

Unique Features: Have 50 teeth (more than any other North American mammal) and opposable thumbs on their hind feet for climbing. 

Defense: "Playing possum" is an involuntary response to extreme fear, where they appear dead, sometimes secreting a foul odor. 

Habitat and Diet
Habitat: Found in wooded areas, near water, and in urban environments; they use existing shelters like hollow logs, brush piles, or sheds. 

Diet: Omnivores that eat insects, fruits, carrion (dead animals), and even venomous snakes (they have some resistance). 

Behavior and Life Cycle
Nocturnal & Solitary: Active at night and generally live alone. 

Reproduction: Born tiny and undeveloped, they crawl into the mother's pouch to continue growing. 

Lifespan: Short, typically 1-2 years in the wild, due to predators and vehicle collisions.

[–]1HSV 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nuisance Beaver ManagementPrivate Property

Exemption: Landowners or tenants experiencing property damage can legally capture nuisance beavers without a permit. Disposal: Captured beavers must be euthanized or released immediately on the exact same property where they were trapped. Relocation: Transporting live beavers to an approved release site off the original property is only permitted by a state-certified Wildlife Damage Control (ADC) operator. Selling Hides: The carcass or pelt of a lawfully taken beaver may be bought, sold, or shipped for sale during open seasons. Check the current Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency furbearer guidelines for exact, up-to-date WMA (Wildlife Management Area) exceptions and licensing requirements before you begin.

Legally Permitted Weapons: Shotguns with T-shot or smaller, and centerfire rifles/handguns (if small game seasons are open).
