The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP ) in British Columbia, Canada say that 17 horses are dead after being shot on Crown land west of Kamloops.
The Tk’emlups Rural RCMP say officers were called to an area north of Walhachin for reports that several horses had been killed.
Mounties say the horses are believed to be part of a wild herd that often comes to the area.
“The motive behind this disheartening act cannot be confirmed at this point. However, investigators will continue to collect and examine everything available,” a news release reads.
“It is acknowledged that these horses are of cultural significance to the local Skeetchestn Band.”
Police are asking anyone with information to call the
RCMP Livestock Section at 250-299-7462,
