Police are investigating after a dead golden eagle was found wrapped in a plastic bag on a forestry track.
Officers said body parts had been removed from the bird, which was discovered on a track off the A81 near Loch Rusky, north east of Port of Monteith in Stirlingshire.
The dead bird was found at around 11am on Tuesday July 30 this year.
Investigations have been ongoing and police are now appealing to the public for information as they try to establish how the eagle came to be there.
Golden eagles are protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident number 1166 of July 30, or to call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 where anonymity can be maintained.
