YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Wildlife carers have rescued hundreds of baby swans found stranded on the ocean in Western Australia this summer.

Each year, the cygnets, which are not yet ready to fly, are abandoned by their parents as the wetlands dry up in and around Busselton in the state's South West.

They wander in search of the nearest source of water and end up stuck at sea with nothing to eat or drink.

It's then up to volunteers from the wildlife rescue group FAWNA to save the cygnets from starvation.
