From the sound of it, maybe the trap setter thought it was already dead, and just disposed of what he though was a corpse. Was it still moving around when you found it?
The possum I guess was in shock. It was'nt moving to fast, and did not really put up a fight when we caught it. It was plenty alive though. Some ----head threw it into the dumpster to get rid of it. I hope it ran off to a nicer part of town.
