Swan who protected her eggs clubbed to death in Uitgeest: ‘It’s sad’ | Inland

“The swan lay dead on the side of the ditch, probably clubbed to death to protect her eggs. It is very sad ”, walker Mary tells NH Nieuws.

The eggs were probably taken by someone who wanted to sell or eat them. An employee of the Animal Ambulance therefore calls on not to post photos of nesting swans on Facebook. This can put egg thieves on a trail. “Sad that I have to ask this, but you should not make it too easy for these people,” she told the regional radio and television broadcaster.
