The children, aged one, six and nine, were found after Mexico’s National Guard issued an alert Wednesday.

A task force with the National Institute of Immigration responded to the call and were able to safely remove the girls from the islet, known as Isla del Mudo.

Video footage shows the oldest girl carrying her baby sister before handing her over to one of the agents as she and her other sister clamber on to the boat.
