Usually, after a wild animal is rescued and nursed back to health or reaches an age where they can care for themselves, the right thing to do is to release them back into the wild. That’s what was supposed to happen to these three baby opossums.

The three little ones had become orphans after their parents died in a car accident and a dog attack respectively.
