Most swans, except for the Mute Swan species, stay with their romantic partners for life. So if Bay continues to bond with her potential romantic interest, it could result in a lifelong relationship!
Swans live an average of 12 years, but in a protected environment, they can live up to 30 years. If Bay continues to stay at the Wild Bird Fund in New York City, then her life span could be significantly longer in comparison to other swans.
Bay is currently recovering from lead poisoning. This is not uncommon for swans - they accidentally gobble up items that aren't good for them while snacking on aquatic vegetation.
