      @Ghost of sly the fox to "put down" or plainly, to kill, usually and hopefully in a humane way due to medical reasons because the animal cannot be saved medically.

    Drives all day and all night to hand off two adoptees, stops on the way to rescue an opossum, stays overnight to make sure the adoption goes well, stops on the way home to help a family with food...
    You can't let Ethan out for long, or he's gonna solve all the world's problems. A true inspiration!

    An absolute heartbreaking scene, but a true redemption of humans in my eyes. You two are incredible representatives for our species. Seeing Mom struggling to stay alive to protect her babies just tore me up. I had a friend who fostered opossum babies found alongside SoCal freeways. They can be mean little cusses, but it's usually out of fear and defense. Wish others were as caring and loving to our companions in the world as you are. Thank you, I can live this day with a bit of pride and faith in humankind restored.

How many other people were on their way to a wildlife rehabber? The odds are astronomical - like you just won the powerball and mega millions at the same time! Bless you for that!

    The poor poor poor possum! It makes me feel so sad for mom had her three babies. I’m glad that one survived though. I’m sure that the baby will be fine. But 🥺😢.

    Reminds me of how one night, I was driving and I found a great horned owl standing on the road. Still alive, just standing still. Magnificent bird, perhaps fourteen inches tall. I put on the flashers, honked, didn't move. Got out and yelled, still didn't move. I thought about petting it, but I wanted to keep my full set of fingers, so I poked it with a snow-brush, and finally it flew off. Couldn't leave it just standing there, of course.

    That was SO awful and sad to see that mother possum hit in the road, struggling with everything in her, slowly failing, but still trying cause her pups... and all the little pups scattered all over the road dead except for 1 tiny fighter... ugh! My heart shattered! I won't be getting that out of my head for a while.. Good on you for staying calm in that situation, and putting her out of her misery. She was probably in so much pain and so scared. I would have been bawling my eyes out purely from being so dang upset that they were hurt in the first place. Also good on you for being able to rescue at least 1 of the babies...what a little warrior. Updates on that PLEASE!!
    It's so nice seeing Onyx as comfortable and curious as she seems to be about her new home, and the fact her new roommate and her seem to get along well enough. I am sure they will learn each other's boundaries hehe.

    Your a good man Ethan. You did the right thing. You gave them a good death. Heartbreaking.

    Clive runs pretty good for missing a leg! Onyx has a nice disposition, I hope she and Clive become friends and have a nice life there. It looks like a nice living area. (The possum part kinda ruined the video for me)

    Damn, Clive is fast for a tripod! He does seem to want to be friends with Onyx, well, until she drank his water.

    That poor mother possum and her babies☹️☹️☹️. I’m glad this man had the fortitude to help the mother not to suffer anymore in the last minutes of her life, and that there was a miracle of one of her babies surviving.

    @keyrousse 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Dang, Ethan, you're such a good soul. Heart of gold.
    I hope the little possum will make it. Even if not, you gave it love and care - and a chance to survive.
    Hopefully Onyx and Clive will get along :)

    Good job, mission more than accomplished! Watching from the UK and feel so sad for poor Mama Possum and her babies (what beautiful mothers they are), but very glad you came along and ended her suffering, and saved her one surviving baby. May he continue to thrive and live a happy life, in tribute to the family he lost.
    It doesn't bear thinking about how mother and son would also have died, slowly, in the cold and rain without your help. God bless you wonderful people and all you do for our animal cousins. You are truly doing heroic and very important work. If only more people had empathy for animals. It hurts my heart that someone drove too fast, hit a sweet mother and her defenceless babies, and just drove on, not lifting a finger to help them. They have brought a whole heap of nasty karma on themselves!

      Yeah, it doesn't seem to slow him down at all - I barely even noticed he _was_ a tripod!
