The white swan (Cygus olor) was introduced into New Zealand from the United Kingdom in 1866.
There was a famous Irish legend of the Children of Lir, where four children were cursed by their jealous stepmother to live as swans for 900 years, becoming human only at moonlight. Christianity's arrival to Ireland broke the spell, transforming them into aged humans at their death.
