Why do all swans in Britain belong to the Queen of England?
First of all, for the record, no, all swans in Britain belong to the Queen of England. Because a spokesman for Buckingham Palace once clarified:

It is impossible to say that the Queen of England is the master of the national swan. Although the Queen is not the owner of English swans, in fact, she owns several kinds of dumb swans in the Thames.

This is strange because a girl in England was bitten by a swan. I heard that the owner of the swan is the queen. She attached a photo of herself crying and wrote to the queen asking her to apologize. This is Buckingham Palace's reply.

So what swans does the Queen own in Britain?

It turns out that this wonderful rule is not required by the queen. It originated in 12 century. King Henry II likes swans very much. Every day, he said to give me swans and bring me all the swans in the Thames, so that the crying children could have milk to eat. The swan on the Thames became the king's.

According to the law, the quiet swan in English waters belongs to the queen. Then there is no need for a screaming swan queen.

Another is that if it is a private swan, it is not the queen's. But if your private swan escapes to the Thames twice, it belongs to the queen.

Swan is well protected in Britain because its number has dropped sharply. Deliberately killing swans will result in six months' imprisonment and a fine of 5,000 pounds in severe cases. You can't just pick up goose eggs. So now the whole of Britain is far away from swans.

Every July, someone specially counts swans for the Queen and then checks them.

But when you don't know who the owner of the swan is, you can say it's the queen's swan, and that's not wrong. Because it may be illegal to eat swans in England, and the Queen may not know it yet, so you have put it in prison.

Ha ha!
