nmost tundra 
regions of the continent. 
Recently, populations of mute swans - an exotic species introduced to North America from Europe 
in the early 1900s - have begun increasing by an alarming 30 to 40 percent annually in some states. 
Most wildlife biologists today believe the majestic white creatures, with their tendency to destroy a 
pond's plant life and drive away native waterfowl, might create havoc on the scale of the gypsy moth, 
starling, or English sparrow. 
Both native species of swans are wild and require large areas of uninhabited summer ground for 
nesting and feeding. Mutes, however, semi-domesticated and accustomed to people, can nest in pairs 
of as many as three or four on one small coastal pond, which can burden delicate and 
environmentally essential brackish ponds.
