Schleich World of Nature Farm Life Collection - Mute Swan, Female

The Mute Female Swan is part of Schleich's World of Nature: Farm Collection. A relative of geese and ducks, swans are the largest members of their family. Found in temperate climates, swans are herbivores, and some migrate. All swans mate for life; however, pairs 'divorce' especially due to hatching problems. Unlike other species, males help build the nest and incubate the eggs. Swan eggs weigh well over half a pound and often are among four to six others.
