Framingham Mom Saves Swan Injured By Fish Hook
Jessica Zorge rehabilitates wildlife, and jumped into action when she saw the injured swan in Framingham.
FRAMINGHAM, MA — A local mother went above and beyond to reunite a family of swans. Jessica Zorge is a wildlife rehabber who specializes in hawks and owls, but this time it was a swan in Framingham that needed help.
The bird had a fishhook in its mouth and Zorge spent several days trying to catch it. When she finally did with the help of some treats, she knew she had to act fast.
“As soon as we caught it, just pulled it right ashore and took the hook out,” Zorge said. “Mom was right there with the seven babies and they were waiting nearby.”
