The crow was stuck in the Ménilmontant metro station in Paris for three months. The bird was finally captured and released on Friday morning.

A specialist at the Natural History Museum was called in to try and free the bird. A new operation is planned for the night of February 8 to 9 to free the crow. The crow was caught in a net in one of the tunnels and was released back into the wild, the specialist says. The operation is scheduled to resume on January 31 to February 1.
