That kind of behaviour absolutely disgusts me. How can people be so cruel to these beautiful creatures???
Not so long ago here, there was a story where some people had taken some swans from the local botannical gardens, tied them to the back of their car, and went on a joy ride, the swans were completely mauled. Fortunately they caught the people responsible, it was a couple of teenage boys. When asked why they had done it, their response....we thought it was funny!!!! Someone should do the same to them and then lets see how funny it is!!!! These boys got off with barely a slap on their hand. Its outrageous.
We hear more and more about these acts of cruelty. I think the perpertrators should be strung up for all to see and throw rotten food at.

Really good post.
