A former footballer is being investigated by an animal welfare charity over claims he killed and ate an iguana.
Ex-Hamilton Academical and Trinidad & Tobago striker Richard Roy appeared in a photograph holding a dead lizard by the tail above a kitchen sink.
The shocking image was posted on his wife Cheryl's Facebook page and is believed to have been taken at a house in Dundee.
Roy has got six caps for Trinidad & Tobago, where iguana meat is considered a delicacy. It is often served as a special treat at festivals.
The shocking image of the dead iguana was posted on his wife Cheryl's Facebook page and is believed to have been taken at a house in Dundee.
The post sparked a furious backlash after she said that her husband would be eating it later.
Cheryl hit back: 'People need to mind their own damn business. Far too many people having a lot to say about other people's lives.
'If you don't like how I live my life, remove yourself, please.'
One user told the Daily Record that Cheryl had removed all of the critical comments alongside her post.

Roy, 31, signed for Hamilton on a four-month contract in August 2016.
He made just two appearances and left in January 2017. Later that year he signed for Indian side NEROCA.
It is unclear where he's playing now.
Cheryl, a PA at a care home, told the paper that the photo was a 'joke' and said she had removed it from her Facebook page after the barrage of complaints.

She said: 'If they were upset and if they had said that to me straight away themselves I would have deleted it straight away.
'Whoever it is that's hiding behind this is not very nice.'
Last night, the Scottish SPCA confirmed they have been made aware of the photograph and a specialist team of officers is now investigating.
