Turns out, it takes quite a few folks to free a squirrel from the trappings of a plastic cup.
The heroes at Enfield EMS, the ambulance provider for a Connecticut town, came to the rescue of a terrified squirrel.
In a video they shared on Aug. 12, a team of wildlife rescuers freed the squirrel with the help of a pink blanket.
It took them a few tries—and the squirrel got a chance to show off its impressive leaping skills as it bounded across the pavement before finally scurrying away into the trees.
Let's all make a pact not to leave our cups in the wild and relieve the squirrel population from unnecessary panic attacks.
