A second Highland Hospice decorated coo has been damaged in Inverness.

It coincides with the official launch of the charity's Great Heilan Coo Trail and it follows damage to the sculpture in Falcon Square earlier this week.

The second incident was in Whin Park and the COOmeleon was painted by izurch and sponsored by Springfield Properties.

The vandalism included damage to a large part of his body and a horn and an eye have been ripped off.

A hospice spokeswoman said he would be going to the vet today to be repaired and added: "We just want to let our supporters who are coo-spotting know that he will be out of action for a few days.

"The buzz around our competition to spot all 10 Inverness coos over the Easter weekend has been phenomenal. So many children are out and about 'coo-hunting in a bid to win a beautiful Hotel Chocolat hamper.

"Please do continue with your hunt and tag us in your photos with the remaining 9 coos.

"They provide an 'udderly' brilliant adventure so get moo-ving and take in the beauty of these incredible sculptures."
