Six swans have been decapitated and butchered for their breast meat, it was revealed today.
The royally protected birds were found by rangers at Alvaston Park in Derbyshire last week. Police believe they were killed for food.
Patrols are being stepped up to protect other swans which legally belong to the Queen, with offenders caught harming them facing a £5,000 fine or six months jail.
