Baby Billie is feeling a bit better after some pain medication and antibiotics. The biggest boost to her energy seems to be that we were able to reunite her with the only other surviving cygnet from her group after the attack (there were 5 to start with). As you can see in this video, Billie can’t quite figure out how to get the food in her mouth. She will need to learn to adjust if there’s any hope of her surviving. We’ll keep updating on her progress!

We don’t typically work with animals other than dogs and cats, but when this cygnet (baby swan) was brought to us after being attacked by a wild animal, we just had to try to help. This little baby is named Billie, and she is missing the top half of her bill. We are hoping she will survive. Stay tuned for updates!
