Animal Rescuer Gently Frees Baby Swan From Chain Link Fence While Politely Waving Off Irate Swan Father

Animal rescuer Simon Cowell, the founder of Wildlife Aid Foundation, responds to call informing him that a baby swan (cygnet) had become stuck in a chain link fence while following its mum into the River Thames. Despite the looming threat of the irate father swan (cob) who physically attacked the rescuer with several angry slaps of his wing, Simon was finally able to gently free the cygnet from the fence and reunite the little one back with its family.
