Conservation actions <strong>in</strong> place for Whooper swan [1, 4, 7, 52, 53] . Action Legislation Site/area protection Secondary poison<strong>in</strong>g from <strong>in</strong>gestion of lead pellets. Dra<strong>in</strong>age of wetland habitats. Collision with overhead power cables. Planned w<strong>in</strong>d power plant developments are likely to be an important cause of habitat loss for Icelandic Whooper swans. Medium Historically high Medium Potentially high the 1840s [25] , but the species’ distribution <strong>in</strong> the country contracted 1,100km northwards [16] . S<strong>in</strong>ce the 1950s, Whooper swans have been extend<strong>in</strong>g their distribution southwards <strong>in</strong> Norway, Sweden, F<strong>in</strong>land, and Russia, and have recently become established as a breed<strong>in</strong>g bird <strong>in</strong> the Baltic States, Poland, Germany, Denmark, the Netherlands, Hungary, Belarus and Ukra<strong>in</strong>e [5, 6, 26–44] (Figure 2), while first breed<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> France was recorded <strong>in</strong> 2012 [45] and a small number breed <strong>in</strong> the UK [46] . In contrast, the w<strong>in</strong>ter distribution has not changed appreciably [8] , although there are some <strong>in</strong>dications of a southward shift <strong>in</strong> Brita<strong>in</strong> and Ireland [7] . Description Legally protected across its range and listed <strong>in</strong> various <strong>in</strong>ternational treaties (see ‘Legal protection and conservation status’). There are 737 identified IBAs for Whooper swan <strong>in</strong> Europe, of which 61% are designated as SPAs or other protected areas and 9% are not protected. Most key w<strong>in</strong>ter<strong>in</strong>g areas and many key breed<strong>in</strong>g areas of the northwest European population are protected, but few forag<strong>in</strong>g areas lie <strong>in</strong> protected areas. Few key sites for the Icelandic population are protected. Major threats Unsusta<strong>in</strong>able hunt<strong>in</strong>g, trapp<strong>in</strong>g and egg collection were the ma<strong>in</strong> driver of the decl<strong>in</strong>e <strong>in</strong> Whooper swans <strong>in</strong> Europe dur<strong>in</strong>g the 19 th and early 20 th centuries [48, 49] . Persecution drove the northwest European population northwards <strong>in</strong>to poor quality habitat and unsuitable arctic climate, which resulted <strong>in</strong> decl<strong>in</strong>es <strong>in</strong> reproductive performance [4, 50] . Habitat loss through the dra<strong>in</strong>age of wetlands is also likely to have had an adverse effect on Whooper swan population size [1, 6] . As the species switched to forag<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> agricultural habitats, a conflict with agriculture has developed due to the damage caused to crops and pasture, which is the ma<strong>in</strong> ongo<strong>in</strong>g threat to the species [7] . Other threats <strong>in</strong>clude lead poison<strong>in</strong>g from the <strong>in</strong>gestion of lead shot, collision with powerl<strong>in</strong>es, and the risk posed by development of w<strong>in</strong>d power plants <strong>in</strong> the UK [1, 51] . Drivers of recovery The most important driver of the recovery of the species follow<strong>in</strong>g the decl<strong>in</strong>es suffered prior to the 1950s is the protection of the species from hunt<strong>in</strong>g [1, 7] . Improvements <strong>in</strong> food availability dur<strong>in</strong>g the w<strong>in</strong>ter, through the expansion and <strong>in</strong>tensification of agriculture contributed to <strong>in</strong>crease and range expansion of Whooper swans <strong>in</strong> northwest Europe [54] . Breed<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> the Baltics also means that Whooper swans overw<strong>in</strong>ter closer to their breed<strong>in</strong>g grounds, result<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> a shorter migration [55] , while milder w<strong>in</strong>ters have also been very beneficial to Whooper swan productivity [6] . 172
