Swan Rescue

ByJon

We have two young swans admitted recently, both from different situations.One cygnet arrived a couple of weeks ago, he has a large abscess on a his right foot. He’s been on antibiotics and pain relief, as he hasn’t been improving, he was operated on this week. Each day we now re-dress his foot, packing with topical antibiotic.The other cygnet was the result of a dog attack. The two swans have at least each others company, we hope in another couple of weeks they’ll be good to go back into the wild.
