Police are investigating after two white-tailed eagles reintroduced on the Isle of Wight have been found dead.

We're told post mortems and toxicology examinations will be carried.

One of them was discovered in Dorset at the end of last month.

The birds, once extinct in the UK, are part of an ongoing conservation project.
