June 4 (UPI) -- A worker at a Wisconsin archery range captured video of an unusual visit from a hard-working opossum mother carrying a dozen babies on her back.

A video posted to the Facebook page for NiceTargets, an archery range in Genoa City, shows the mother opossum walking past the business' office Tuesday while carrying her babies.

The filmer said the opossum family nearly walked through the open door into the business.

"So this just walked by the office window....I counted #twelve #goodmommy #stronglegs #dedication Almost walked right in the door I was filming from," the Facebook post said.
