Wonky, who was only four months old, was last seen at the California Cliffs holiday park in Scratby on Wednesday, August 1.

Wonky was still being weaned and was easily recognisable by his deformed club foot.

His owner was Bryonie Jones, of Stalham and who had put out a plea to see if people had seen him and asked people to check their sheds and gardens.

She said: “I am sorry to say that Wonky is dead. He was hit by a car so it was mercifully swift. I feel very sad but that is a comfort.”
