Opossums rarely are given a second thought in the U.S. mainland due to their prolific range, but in Hawaii the animals are a big concern. Officials captured one in January at a store in Kona, sparking more fears of the animals gaining a foothold on the island and potential impacts on other species. A 6-pound possum was caught on January 6 outside a big box store in Kona. It was transported to Oahu for testing of rabies. It was the first one captured this year.

In response to years of feral hogs causing extensive damage to property and agriculture in rural Oklahoma, Sen. Dusty Deevers, R-Elgin, has introduced SB478, known as the Free to Hunt Feral Hogs bill. The proposed legislation aims to eliminate the need for permits to hunt feral hogs, allowing Oklahomans to protect their land, crops and livestock more freely. “Feral hogs are much more than just a nuisance. They are a threat to Oklahoma’s farms, ranches and livelihoods,” Deevers said.
