Dead possum in lake
This is probably an extremely stupid question. I awoke this morning to find what I think is a dead possum in our boat area. The area was dug into the land and it is right up against the beach. It isn’t going to float back out on its own.
Any idea what to do about it? I am NOT dealing with it myself.

I’d dig a hole, a couple feet deep and bury it. Or you could spend a bunch of money and call an exterminator to grab it.

Cannot do it myself. Broke my wrist. My neighbors are all quite elderly or just not here yet. I did call the town and they said they would send someone.
Good suggestions, though!!!

Call NHDES?
NHDES may want to report a wildlife victim of cyanobacteria.
