Info from Licensor: Saw it during my walk, I thought it was only sleeping only to see it’s much more. The fishing hook is caught between its beak and wings. I tried to call it to come to me or whenever I try to go near the water it tries to move away. I stayed with him for a couple of hours to earn its trust because I knew that if I leave it, it wouldn't survive. After a few struggles, the swan probably realized that it could trust me. I made an attempt again to grab it, fortunately, he did not move away this time. Luckily some stranger was able to find pliers and he helped me cut the hook out finally freeing the swan.
