An investigation has been launched after a peregrine falcon was found injured in County Tyrone.
The bird of prey was found with a leg injury in the garden of a property in Station Road, Strabane, on Friday evening.
The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) said the injury was consistent with a bullet wound, which would require specialist treatment.
Birds of prey in Northern Ireland are protected by legislation, and it is against the law to intentionally or recklessly kill, injure or take any wild bird.
