00:00Wrestling a full-grown swan is no easy task, but there was just no other way to save him.
00:10Fishing line was wrapped around this dad swan's leg for two weeks,
00:15and with every passing day, it just became tighter.
00:23Thankfully, Rebecca and Amy noticed that something was wrong,
00:26and refused to stop searching for help.
00:30And after weeks of trying, they finally got connected with rescuer Nancy,
00:36who immediately rushed out to help and just hoped that they weren't too late.
00:40I got you.
00:46No one really knew how much damage the line had already done.
00:51The hope was that it could just be simply cut away,
00:55and thankfully, it could.
00:59Looks good.
01:00Yeah.
01:00Looks good.
01:00Feels good?
01:01Yeah.
01:02Aw, good boy.
01:03A little indent, but nothing.
01:05Aw, awesome. Phenomenal.
01:07This beautiful swan dad walked away with both of his legs intact,
01:11all because a few people refused to give up on him.
01:16Those were trying to help him.
01:19Hi, sweetheart.
01:23And also, by the way, this is a really important reminder
01:26that discarded fishing line can be deadly for wildlife.
01:31Bye, guys.
01:33Have a good nesting season.
01:36One piece of fishing line can change an animal's life.
01:41Wow.
01:42You're amazing.
01:43Oh, god. My arm hurts.
01:44Oh, god. My arm hurts.
01:54Oh, god.
01:54Oh, god.
