Live in town, and not rural at all. Have had rabbits and opossum since we moved here just over 20 years ago. But there have also been one or two great horned owls that roost atop a large cottonwood tree in the back yard. Think the owls keep the other critters numbers in check as we see them with young in the spring, but by fall they are back down to one or two each variety.

Also have a Golden Retriever. Even though she is an indoor dog, she helps the owls keep the back yard rodent, snake, lizard, and bug free.

My last golden actuall brought me a opossum that was playing opossum. Had her drop it a come inside. In a few minutes the opossum got up and ambled away.
