00:03they realized it wasn't just one animal in trouble.
00:05It was an entire family.
00:08They called the police, who quickly reached out to local rescuer John DeBacker.
00:13The possum was in between two fences.

00:28I don't know how I'll make this angle.
00:31Sorry, I'm just trying to think. I just don't want to scare her too much.
00:41Can I have the towel?
00:43I almost got stuck myself. There was a nail sticking out and I almost got scraped from the nail.
00:48Oh, that's a pretty nasty injury.
00:50It was pretty difficult, actually.
00:52Yeah.
00:55But turning back wasn't an option.
01:21I'm gonna make sure none fell out.
01:26All good. Success.
01:28After carefully freeing the exhausted mom,
01:30he rushed the entire family to a licensed wildlife rehabilitator
01:34so they could get the care they desperately needed.
01:37Yeah.
01:37I would have so much fun to do that.
01:39To get in the family,
