A caring fisherman rescued a stranded seagull ‘destined to die’ after it was caught up in a fishing line off the back of a boat.

Lincoln from Land Fish TV was walking through Brighton Breakwall in Melbourne, Australia, when he spotted a bird thrashing off the back of the boat.

Crossing over the jetty to take a closer look, the angler found the stressed seagull thrashing about just centimetres above the water hanging with a thin plastic line stuck in its beak.

Lifting it back on to the boat and holding its head down, Lincoln used a pair of pliers to snip the wire before unravelling it from the bird’s wings and releasing it back on to the jetty.

This is why fishermen need to pay more attention to the wildlife around them. That poor seagull was lucky to be saved by that kind man.

Dosen't it feel weird to rescue one animal from a hook in it's mouth then do the same to other animals? Why are the fish less worthy?
