Work is underway to remove between 30 and 40 lamb carcasses that were found dumped in a stream in Co Derry.
The bodies of the dead animals were found in the Leighry Road area outside Limavady, close to the Binevenagh Nature Reserve, on Easter Sunday by local photographer Desmond Loughery.
Desmond said he was horrified by the discovery, saying that he believes the lambs were dumped over a bridge into a waterway in an area that is a popular beauty spot and regularly visited by families and tourists.
