Police leaders would do well to seek outside assistance from animal experts to help patrol officers be prepared for what is a nearly certain eventuality—dealing with an animal in need of immediate rescue or humane euthanasia.
The swan was standing on the shoulder of I-696. The trooper was able to put the animal into a bag and brought it to the MSP post.

The officers soon found a badly damaged pickup truck that had rolled over. They also discovered that the driver and a passenger had been ejected from the vehicle and were hypothermic and seriously injured.
With the help of others who stopped, Trooper Phan slowed traffic and they were able to get the dog into his cruiser.
The officers learned that someone had left five puppies in a zipped duffel bag at a QT gas station and convenience store, and they decided to adopt them.
The owner of the 11-month-old female cougar surrendered the animal on Thursday, said Kelly Donithan, director of animal disaster response for the Humane Society of the United States.
The Springfield Police Department received a call about an hour and a half after the shooting, reporting that Zeke was in a hot car. Officers found the door unlocked and were able to remove him and take him to a local vet.
The department said the officer “fulfilled the job description category ‘other duties are required.’”
The driver told police he had parked his Jeep at a gas station and walked over to a bakery. A short time later he saw his Jeep up against the Fairfield building across the street.
