are you sure he was dead? I highly doubt a rooster could kill a possum. I've seen them shot, half-eaten by dogs, hit by cars and still get up and walk away. Shot them myself and tossed them on the garbage pile only to have them wander away the second my back was turned. Didn't take long to learn to shoot them in the head, just to be sure.

They can slow their breathing/heart rate, will even release their bowels to fake death.
