Another Pelican snarled up in fishing lines. This pelican was unable to move since its legs were tangled up in a fishing line. I did not see if there was a hook stuck in him. I called the local animal rescue, they were unable to pick up the bird. They would help if we brought the bird in. I did not have the equipment or car or help to bring him in. A couple friends of mine took upon themselves to rescue the bird the next day. They caught him and cut the lines from his feet and he was able to fly away and probably eat some. They also found a second Pelican with "something" stuck in his beak. They were able to dislodge it and let him go. Thanks to those volunteers that came to the Pelicans rescue.
