A caring passerby rescued a squirrel trapped in a discarded net. A wholesome video shows Mads Edbdrup, 54, donning a pair of heavy-duty gloves as he works to free the trapped critter. Mads, from Birkerod, Denmark, discovered the squirrel on a neighbor’s lawn, having initially thought it was a greedy one who had been hoarding a pile of goodies. But on closer inspection it became clear that the squirrel was in distress. Mads’ son, Thomas, filmed the April 24 rescue, while his daughter, Ellen, helped cut parts of the net to free the red squirrel. Once the squirrel was completely loose, Mads pointed it in the direction of nearby trees before letting go – with the squirrel speedily scurrying off.
