A diesel spill in Wallington led to swift rescue efforts by Wallington Animal Rescue and the Swan Sanctuary. Volunteers captured two contaminated swans for urgent treatment. Diesel's thinner composition allows it to seep through feathers, making it particularly hazardous for birds. Although most diesel dissipated, the environmental impact remains unclear. The incident was linked to a fire that damaged vehicles and a building, with no reported injuries. The rescued swans are in quarantine and will undergo cleaning before being returned to their habitat.
