Swan paying the price of anglers after pike in local country park pond.
Fortunately local wildlife rescue managed to remove treble hook after trying to capture swan for two days.
Looks as if the bird is settling down again with its mate ... but for how long.
Local "undead" anglers don't give a ***** for birds using the pond - chucking wine bottles in pond, booze cans, snagged fishing line and broken spirit bottles littering their camp fire sites, not to mention the dug up paths full of holes where they've been digging for bait.
Park authorities feel priority is running introductory angling sessions and dealing with the problem by sticking a poster here and there to remind park users to use the park responsibly.
... would have more success by asking the swans to use their mobiles to report vandals.
