A young swan was saved after getting lost in Derbyshire – with a police officer ensuring that it was safely returned to its mother.
On Thursday, February 23, the Derbyshire Armed Response Unit were travelling along Markeaton Street in Derby when they noticed a “frightened young cygnet.”
A DARU spokesperson said the animal “had mistaken the road for a river near to Derby University while its mother watched on from the lake.”
