A father has filmed the moment he freed a Tasmanian Devil after the animal became stuck on his verandah late at night.
Dan Witts, 43, and his family were sound asleep at their Huon Valley home, in southern Tasmania, on February 7.
Mr Witts said he was woken up to the sound of scratching coming from outside, and got out of bed to investigate, armed with only his phone.
He followed the noise to an empty plant pot in the corner of the verandah.
