A family have been left 'traumatised' after finding 40 dead sheep stuffed into bin bags in an Argyll forest.

Morven Woodcroft, 50, from Glasgow, was on holiday in Lochgilphead with her husband and their five-year-old grandson when they stumbled across the grizzly sight.

The grandmother said she mistook the piles of rubbish for fly tipping before spotting legs poking out from the bags dumped on the forest trail.

She told the Record: "We were taking our grandson for a walk through the forest because it was a really nice day and hoped to get some photos.
