(WSVN) - A opossum was rescued at a home in Miami-Dade County.
Video from Only In Dade captured a woman who spotted the furry critter in her swimming pool.
“Oh, my God, there’s a baby, there’s a baby in there. Oh, my God, I love opossums with all my heart,” said the woman on the video. “Come here, baby, come here. I got you, baby. You made it, are you OK? How long have you been swimming?”
The woman grabbed a skimmer net and scooped the opossum out of the pool.
The animal then took a breath and ran off into the yard.
