摘要: Canis lupus (Gray Wolf) have been suspected as natural predators of Cygnus buccinator (Trumpeter Swan), but detailed descriptions such predation events are lacking from the peer-reviewed literature. Herein, we document a Trumpeter Swan that was killed by Gray Wolf fitted with GPS collar in northern Minnesota, thus confirming wolves Swans.
