[@BelloBudo007]

Actually, having dealt with my fair share of goannas over the years, I believe that you are correct. IMHO the best chance she had was to pursue and chase the lizard on that initial success and then quickly move the family elsewhere. Goannas are unbelievably persistent. Giving up is not in their DNA. We have learned from others who live in the bush, to catch them and relocate them a very long way away. Otherwise, they will just keep on returning. The only real option for the possum was to grab the kids and move away a.s.a.p.

Imagine how people were 5,000 years ago without God’s True Book. How would they have known how they were supposed to live? How would they have known how they were supposed to be in order to please their Creator? So God gave the law of Moses back then. This law was for the people to know how to be. They saw what God expected out of them. God had high expectations from the Israelites. Why shouldn't He? Should He drop His expectations for love and grace? If He drops His expectations to accommodate what man wants, then He compromised His perfection for man’s imperfection. Does a Perfect God compromise His perfection? So God has expectations once He tells His creation how He wants things. His love and grace gives His creation time to change. He is willing to help them change if they ask Him. Then His creation, while repenting or changing to do His will, see His Beauty. This is a relationship formed now with the Creator. If He is the Most Beautiful Being, which He is, how can His creation not want to obey Him? How can His creation not want to please Him? The reason why is because of foolishness. Man loves his own foolishness rather than God’s wisdom, Jn 3:19. Man loves his sin. If anyone loves himself, he will stay in sin. So man who stays in sin rejects his perfect Creator or Father, and exchanges it for his own foolishness. So now fast forward to today where we have God’s True Book. We officially know what God wants. God gave His creation a big help, the Word, to show us how He wants us to live. If we follow His perfect teachings, we all live with perfect peace, love, joy and unity. This is His perfect design for His children's lives. When we go against His perfect design for what we want, sin, we throw away that perfect plan. We throw away that perfect peace, love, joy and unity. Giving up these things is foolish. So sinning against God proves to be the worst plan for us! God wanted to help mankind. God wanted to save man from his foolishness. He wanted to help us the best way possible because He is Good. The best and only way to do it, as God saw fit, was to give mankind His Son. Why? The Son is the Word, Jn 1:1. The Word always obeys the Father's will. The Father's will is spoken through His Word. The Word proceeds forth from the Father's will and mind. So the Word that God speaks is the pure sequel to what was inside the Father's mind and heart. Jesus is that perfection manifest. He is the physical embodiment of God's will and thought. God's will and thought is expressed through His Word. Jesus, the human part, is the perfect, physical expression of God. Jesus, the human part that walked this earth, came to teach us the perfect will of God. How? He did this by example. This is why Jesus walked this earth perfectly without sinning. So Jesus taught us perfectly. He even was willing to die not only death, but the death He did not deserve since He never sinned against God the Father. He chose to give His life. That's why Jesus says no man forces Him to lay down His life, He chose to lay it down, Jn 10:18. God wanted to save mankind. Jesus wants what the Father wants. The Word always obeys the will. He shed even His perfect, pure blood for us. His blood is the fulfillment of perfect obedience to the Father. Why? Because the Son asked 3 times in the Garden, "Take my cup not by my will but by yours." The Father said the Son still had to shed His blood on the cross. The Son obeyed the Father's will over His own. So the blood was shed for that purpose. Nobody else had that kind of blood. Nobody else pleased the Father perfectly like the Son. So now instead of the law of Moses showing us the way to live rightly in God's eyes, we have the Son. This is the New Covenant. In Jesus and His blood, we now obey Him instead of the Mosaic law as part of this new agreement between man and God. So as man wants to live rightly to please His Creator, man now must turn to the Word of the Creator. So obeying the perfect teachings of Jesus brings us to how God wants us to live. The Son conquered the grave. The grave is the end of all who sin. The grave is the payment for sin. Satan founded the grave. How? Because Satan started death by being the first to sin against Almighty God. Jesus destroyed Satan's creation and fulfills the very first prophecy spoken of the Savior in Genesis 3:15. That's why Jesus came to "...destroy the works of the devil," 1 Jn 3:8. Satan came to ruin God's Creation with sin. Jesus came to ruin Satan's creation, death, with perfect obedience, which His blood shed proves. That's why in His blood, there is life. So the Gospel is God's reconciliation with man. How? Only through the Son. If you disobey the Son, you disobey the Father. Jesus says, “He who has seen me has seen the Father,” Jn 14:9. Repent and accept Jesus as Your Lord NOW!!! Then start to read the Gospels and obey His commands. Follow Jesus only, no other man, no religion. Only Jesus.

[@satorphoto4416]

Brushtail possums normally only carry one offspring, and they rarely share dens with other brushtails. So the statement about the monitor devouring multiple young is incorrect. Reference: Dr Anne Kerle's book "Possums". The confusion arises because Australian brushtail "Possums" (no "O") are mistaken for the Virginia Opossum (with an "O") which does carry multiple offspring. When Joseph Banks first saw the Australian animal in 1770 he thought they reminded him of the American Opossum and the name unfortunately stuck. But they are totally different animals. The Australian phalangerid is a diprotodont (like koalas) and mostly a herbivore, whereas the Virginia Opossum is a polyprotodont and a carnivore. This is the reason the brushtail possum mother's bite is ineffective because brushtail teeth are more designed for eating leaves, and they aren't carnivores' teeth with a sharp cutting edge.

Puhhh I could write a book now xD what you mentioned is happening all over the planet... Humans animals, don't separate them its life. Imagine your life is a dream of God, and he lives that dream a septillion times. First 1000s are for sure without problems and all of the best. But then it's getting boring and he wants some unpredictable surprises. No matter if good or bad, it's definitely more exciting. And you are developing this dream to the ultimate experience... Guess what, that's what life is... An unpredictable box of surprises. That's why you love to live... If everything is fine.. Life would be boring. Sound weird but think about it. So it's actually not that bad or our fault if we don't help the opossom... It's life in all his fascination

Azmeri Liza Not sad because now the spirit from that possum vessel is released. It was only there to learn what it needed to learn, once learned, it was released from the vessel it first obtained. Sure it looks awful, but death is the only way we let go of the vessel we were given. Hopefully, their next vessel is the human form where it can achieve enlightenment....

[@foomp]

Ah nature. The thing people fool themselves into thinking is beautiful and loving.

[@dawidjagusiak]

Because it is beautiful and loving but also cruel and brutal, just like people can be. Possum is courageous trying to defend the babies but lizard just wants to eat, would you say his behavior was 'ugly'? Perhaps possum could have build it's nest somewhere safer than this, not the open tree trunk, perhaps lizard could have adapt his diet but evolution and instinct decided differently and that's an end result. Nothing loving or hateful about it.

[@rockey13gt]

Dawid to have carnivorous animals whose prey is sentient, and sometimes they're devoured while they're still alive, is cruel. especially when they're just newborns.

Dawid my bad, i skimmed through your reply and for some reason thought you were disagreeing with him. now i see you reiterated what he said. indeed it's cruel.

[@foomp]

Dawid It's a joke at the expense of nature lovers who forget that it can be cruel and brutal. Of course it can also be beautiful and loving at times. In a way, even the act of the lizard eating the babies can be viewed as "beautiful" in how primal and horrific nature often is.

Doubtful, monitor lizards pack the same weapons honey badgers do, plus a whip for a tail, honey badgers also aren’t as big as monitors and quite frankly big monitors don’t care how scary you are, if they think they can eat you, they’ll try to do it.
