Queen Elizabeth retains the right to ownership to all unmarked Mute swans in open water. But since the 15th Century, ownership has been shared with the Worshipful Company of Vintners and the Worshipful Company of Dyers
the queen! most swans belong to her!
No, this is a myth. Swans are protected in the UK, and it would be illegal to harm them in any way. The Queen uses regular toilet paper like everyone else.
No, Swans are protected in the UK and we have Swans on almost every lake, canal or river.
In the UK ,as many people will know, it is against the law to kill a swan. However, if you do decide to do away with one do it on the Orkney Islands. A Viking law states that swans that are in Orkney belong to anyone. But the second you walk onto any part of the UK that isn't Orkney, they belong to the Queen. Killing a swan is not recommended anywhere!!

Technically you can although in the uk swans are protected by the crown, in the us there is no such law more likely then not you will never come across a person who has eaten or much less killed a swan
I think you mean who does belong? Everyone and everything belongs to the ecosystem.
People want to belong because it makes them feel like they are a part of something and that people care about them! So I hope you make everyone feel like they belong!;)
everyone who believs in christ
Many people believe that all swans belong to the British monarch, but in reality this applies only to unmarked Mute Swans on open water, a right of ownership practiced only on a short stretch of the River Thames between Abingdon and Windsor - however, it technically applies to all swans fitting this description with the exception of those found in the Orkneys which, by an old Viking law, belong to the residents of those islands. Marked Mute Swans belong to one of two London livery companies, the Vintners' Company or the Dyers' Company.All sturgeon and whales caught in English waters automatically become the property of the monarch under laws dating to the reign of Edward II (1307-1327). Neither is a common catch, either in English rivers or around England's coasts.
