UPI – Firefighters in Ohio, United States, came to the rescue of a domesticated squirrel that found itself stranded 60 feet up in a tree – and stuck to a branch.
The Green Fire Department said crews responded when a squirrel named Cricket was reported stuck in a tree.
“It may sound normal that a squirrel would be in a tree, but Cricket was on a leash and it became wrapped around a branch to the point where he became entangled and could not move,” the department said in a Facebook post.
The department said C-Shift firefighters were able to deal with the “unique situation” and reunited Cricket with his owner.
