    Wtf? Opossums are benifical to the environment, they eat ticks and other pests. Fuck this comic, this is as bad as rewarding for running over a dog.

      It’s meant to be a reference to sacrificing an animal to appease the gods/ancestors. If the animal wasn’t beneficial, it wouldn’t be a worthy sacrifice.

      Sadly, the tick thing is not true.
