Deer dismembered and discarded on popular walking route

A local woman out walking found the deer which had been shot and then carved up for its meat and discarded along a walkway.

Walkers along a scenic Co Donegal route were left sickened after finding a young deer shot and cut into pieces.

The walkers found the butchered deer earlier today at a local beauty spot known as An Rampar in Crolly, West Donegal (Croithli).
