      I honestly don’t understand this comment. Are they supposed to be dangerous? I’ve encountered angry swans several times and it has always been funny. They can’t do shit to you, unless you’re like 30kg child. Sure, they bite, but even the bite isn’t that bad in comparison to (quite common) dog attacks.

        Seen a few swan and goose attacks, heard from a few friends. A goose literally can not hurt you, a swan can bruise you up pretty good. While yes an adult vs a swan the adult wins it’ll hurt a bit. If that’s something a person can handle is a totally different subject but a full swan attack will leave a person bruised.

          In a full on human vs swan fight, the human might get bruised, but the swan will definitely end up dead. How bruised up the person gets is strictly a matter of how long they’ll put up with the aggressive swan, before finally just snapping it’s weak little neck.
