Ask the Swan Specialist

In Response To: Re: Swan family killed - does surviving pen need help? (The Regal Swan)

Hi Anne

If the mate was killed and she is just sitting there without trying to feed, swim and act normally for fear of something happening, then this is not a good situation for the swan. It also sets her up to getting killed the same way.

Since the RSPCA will not do anything and it is illegal in the U.K. to kill a swan, the only thing that may be done is to have the swan moved by a swan rescue group. We would suggest you contact Wendy Hermon, Swan Support in Bray to see if their group might be able to assist or refer you to someone in your area. The Regal Swan
