One animal sustained catastrophic injuries including a collapsed neck and another was left bleeding and feared dead following the hit and run. Witnesses were horrified after the driver reportedly rode at speed near a canal path in Leigh, Greater Manchester, on 18 July.
This was an extremely distressing act. These poor birds would have had no way to escape the high speed of the scooter, and the injuries described are truly horrific.
Whether it was lack of care or intentional, the driver of the scooter did not stop to check on the geese. Police are appealing to find the man on the e-bike.
The RSPCA has now launched an appeal for more information following the incident, which it described as extremely distressing.
