The counters on the River Thames recorded 94 cygnets, as young swans are called, compared to 155 last year. Mr. Barber said he didn’t expect this year’s count to be quite as low as it was, and that the numbers were the most disappointing in years, Mr. Barber said. He added that 2009 was a worse year, when the uppers counted 84 young swans. The count was 166 cygnets in 2021 and 147 cygnets in 2019, he added. But there was also good news: Even though the number of cygnets was low, they were all in excellent health, Mr. Barber said.

Police say teens stole a swan family from a New York village pond and ate the mother swan. The mother swan had lived in the town for over 10 years; residents are mourning the loss. An 18-year-old faces charges for theft and killing the swan, which is illegal in New York. "The mother swan was consumed," Manlius Mayor Paul Whorrall said Wednesday. Elizabeth Doran/APFor over a decade, Faye and Manny swanned about in the village pond, and each spring hatched and raised cygnets.

CNN —Three teenagers have been arrested in connection with killing and “consuming” a beloved swan in a Syracuse, New York, suburb, and stealing four young swans this week, police said. A mature female swan named Faye and her four young swans, also known as cygnets, were reported missing from the swan pond Monday, police in the village of Manlius said. The three friends, who attend the same high school, hopped over the fence surrounding the swan pond in the middle of the night, Hatter said. We will continue to have swans,” Whorrall said. The swans have been in Manlius since 1905, according to Whorrall, and the village cares for and feeds them.
