Whilst we try to be as prepared as we possibly can be on rescues, we are sometimes faced with having none of our rescue equipment to hand! In this particular instance, our team had only just released a buzzard when they were asked to help rescue an injured baby goose that has fishing line tangled around its legs.
With only one short net on hand, Maru, our lead vet, had to get a little creative to make sure we could help the poor bird...

Now, if all these hobby fishermen would pay attention to their gear, and not leave lines behind... shame on them! Way too many birds and other wildlife is injured or killed by lines, nets and hooks, it's just too sad, and so avoidable.

I saved a goose from fishing line (well, I tried not sure if it lives today). The hook was securely attached under it's wing and the line was heavy and had locked that wing tight to the gooses side. It wrapped around her body a dozen times and then led up to the tounge, making the goose have a crinked neck 100% of the time. It couldn't get low enough to eat grass without sitting down and it obviously couldn't fly. I had to dive on it (it was the only way, tempting with bread didn't work) and I examined the line. It was wrapped around it's tounge so tight (and so many times!) the end of it's tounge had gone black. I had no knife but I managed to burn the line with my lighter, unwrap the wing (freed the wing) which allowed the goose to move it's neck normally. Couldn't get the hook out (feathers too thick) and I didn't know what to do about the tounge but I burned the line all the way to the edge of it's bill. Hopefully it lived! I was motioning to the parkie when she bit me and bolted and escaped to the middle of the lake. Didn't seem like the parkies were interested.

I know it might seem crazy but have you ever tried a 'seam ripper' for removing fishing line? It's meant for unpicking lines of sewing but it has a point you could slide under the line and a cutting edge. ☺️

@julieenslow5915 4 года назад

Not crazy at all! It is meant for picking and cutting threads without hurting the fabric - it takes a good eye and a skilled hand to use it. My only question is - would it be sharp enough to cut a plastic line without pulling the line into the flesh? I think it would. You would need a very small one.

We have a few of those in our usual rescue kit, but sadly we were in the wrong vehicle and had nothing on hand!

Wonderful outcome. Discarded fishing line can be such a hazard for wildlife! Hope that Maru's phone survived too! After, years ago, I dropped my phone into a filled sink, and completely destroyed it, my subsequent phones (two phones after the destroyed phone) have been water proof. That's been one of my requirements when looking for a new phone. If your phone isn't waterproof, and it gets submerged like that, the best thing to do is to leave it alone for 24 hours - don't try to turn it on immediately! Try to turn it on only after it has had time to completely dry out. It might have survived. If it's shut off after being submerged, and you try to turn it on immediately, that act may do enough damage to totally kill it.

@carolineconnelly8620 4 года назад

We need to include a sewing seam ripper in your kit (when you actually have it with you). It may not be designed for heavy line, but it is meant to sneak into delicate spaces better than scissors, and it’s about the size of a pen, so it wouldn’t take much space when you get your next new-to-you Volvo.

@wildlifeaid 4 года назад

We have a few in the kit bag, but sadly we had the wrong car! They are very useful when we do have them on hand! :)
