The Rural Crime Team is appealing for information after a porpoise was found headless in Aberffraw Bay, Anglesey.
The carcass washed up in the area last week and was reported to the Cetacean Strandings Investigation Programme.
On Sunday, February 11th, officers received a report the carcass' head had been removed, and have since recovered an object that is suspected to have been used in the incident.
PC Amy Bennett of the Rural Crime Team said: “This is a disturbing incident and an offence under the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017.
“Anyone with information, or anyone who witnessed the incident, is asked to make contact with us, either by calling 101, or via the website, using reference number Q020184.”
