Nest washed away
Policewomen rescue swan chick “Fridolin”
A swan chick waddled all alone in the direction of Melk's old town; the nest had probably been washed away by the heavy rain. Courageous policewomen rescued the motherless young animal.
The little swan "Fridolin" caused a heartbreaking rescue operation on Sunday evening. The police received a report that "a stray duck" had been spotted. However, when police officers Lisa and Steffi from the Loosdorf police station arrived at the scene, they discovered not a duck, but a swan chick that was just under a week old.
It had made its way to the old town of Melk all on its own. There was no trace of the parents or the siblings of little "Fridolin" - as the chick was affectionately called.
Nest washed away
The chick had a turbulent start to life: its nest had probably been washed away by the heavy rainfall. The courageous policewomen took "Fridolin" to the police station and asked the animal rescue Mostpfoten-Hilfe for help. The little swan is being lovingly cared for there. "We wish 'Fridolin' all the best!" said his rescuers.
