The video of a man stealing a swan on the Vltava River in the centre of Prague made news headlines this week. The incident was captured on video by a passerby, who later handed the footage over to the police. Animal welfare groups have also drawn attention to the case, saying the man has stolen swans from the river previously.
The video that has appeared on newscasts and social networks is relatively short –it shows a man on the embankment luring swans with bird food, grabbing one and carrying it to a parked car, where he locks it up in a cage in the trunk and quickly drives off.
