An American huntress who sparked outrage after posing for pictures with animals shot in Norfolk has been reported to prosecutors.

TV presenter Larysa Switlyk was widely criticised after posting a picture of herself smiling behind a wild goat shot on Islay, with more than 20,000 people commenting on the image.

Scotland Police said a man and woman have been reported to prosecutors for alleged firearms offences.

She also led a hunting party at an undisclosed location in Norfolk and was pictured posing with freshly-shot soay sheep, muntjac and Chinese water deer.

The Scottish Government has said it will review the law around animal culling in the wake of the response to the images.

A Police Scotland statement said: 'Following several complaints of wild goat 'trophy' hunting on Islay in September, Police Scotland can now confirm that a 33-year-old woman and a 41-year-old man from the USA have been reported to the Procurator Fiscal for firearms offences.'
