Bird believed to have been gutted and set alight in 'evil' act of cruelty in Welsh town

A bird is thought to have been burnt and disembowelled in a Welsh town. Residents have been left shocked and appalled by an apparent act of animal “torture” of what is thought to be a young crow in Llanrwst, Conwy.

Fresh entrails were piled neatly on a riverside bench alongside scorched grass and part-burnt feathers, North Wales Live reports. A £200 reward is being offered for information.

One resident who has taken it upon himself to investigate the incident believes it may be linked to a TikTok trend involving animal cruelty. Most are “pranks” that leave animals distressed but some involve extreme violence and even killings.
