Police
and the RSPCA are probing the sadistic killing of a deer which was found
with a tree branch forced up its rear and a McDonald's bag over its head.
The sickening
discovery was made on a cycle path in Slough, Berkshire, by passer-by Shouvik
Chatterjee, who was out walking when he stumbled upon the mutilated animal.
The 42-year-old
believes the deer had not been dead long as the blood was still wet.
Mr Chatterjee,
of Slough, Berks, said: "I thought it was somebody's dog just relaxing
there but it was very disturbing and disgusting. It did shake me up.
"The poor
animal, the face was covered with a McDonalds paper bag, it was completely
covered and there were flies all over it.
"The worse part of it was it looked
like somebody had forced a tree branch up the backside. That was really gross.
"It was
very disturbing, that was why I did not share the picture, even to my wife.
"It was very sadistic. Why would you do that to an animal?"
After contacting the RSPCA, software
company worker Mr Chatterjee was told to stay with the animal only to be called
back saying it could not be collected until the next day as there was no one
available.
An
eight-year-old girl, also of Slough, was left traumatised when she found the
body of a dog half an hour later.
The animal had a rock forced into its
mouth and a concrete slab dropped on it, just over a mile away from where the
deer was discovered.

Police are investigating the incidents and have appealed for anyone with
information to come forward.
