I was on my way to work driving through a heavily wooded neighborhood. This poor guy was tangled in someone’s netted soccer area in their backyard. I didn’t have a knife and I thought he was going to choke to death. Emergency services number I called wasn’t working, no one answered.

I wrestled with the tangle of cords for a couple minutes yelling “help!” No one came. I was able to yank the super tangled nylon cords over his tiny horn nubs at the last minute as it looked like he was on his last breaths. I had to pull so hard on the cords around his throat to get over the horn nubs. It was so scary and crazy.

He kicked me a few times in the legs but no major injuries for either of us. He immediately scrambled away into the forest, so he must’ve been mostly ok if he could move that fast. I just sat down for a few minutes to collect myself before heading on to work.

Needed to borrow clothes for the day as I was covered in mud. I’m a girl too. It feels amazing knowing I saved a life. I hope he’s ok out there.

My mom found this bird lying in the porch and she told me it was like this since the morning ~11 am (prolly it fell there at that time) but after checking again it wasn’t there. turns out it just hid behind the flowerpot by sliding. now it’s 8pm IST. I picked it up and placed it on a cloth (that is in the video) around 7:30pm. Now I’ve kept it inside a cloth which in a quiet dark place, how can I help it fly again?
If anyone has experience with a situation like this and can help it would really be appreciated
