Police and two animal protection agencies are investigating a series of horrific animal cruelty incidents involving birds, kittens and a kangaroo.
The barbaric incidents were filmed on mobile phones and reportedly shared on social media, leading to police questioning an 18-year-old and suspending his gun license.
One video shows a man biting the head of a small bird and then spitting it out, while laughter is heard in the background of the clip reportedly shot in the small rural town of Yarram, Victoria.
There is also another video of a man biting a bird’s head, while another clip shows a bleeding cat being held by the neck while its head is slammed against a wall.

Another video shows a man throwing six kittens – who are still alive if he throws them – on the floor.
The man then said “Six dead damn cats.”
Yet another video circulating on social media shows a kangaroo bleeding profusely and appearing to be having trouble breathing.
The man who allegedly filmed this video is heard laughing as he kicks the helpless, dying creature.
It is not known whether the same person filmed all the videos and posted them on social media.
“Yarram officers questioned an 18-year-old man from the Gippsland area about aggravated cruelty to animals and suspended the man’s Victorian firearms license,” a police spokeswoman told the Daily Mail Australia.
The Victorian branch of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and the Conservation Regulator are also investigating the incidents.
“All native wildlife, including kangaroos, are protected under the Wildlife Act 1975 and any cruelty towards them is illegal and completely unacceptable,” a Conservation Regulator spokesman said.

“(It) takes all allegations of animal cruelty seriously and our authorized officers are working with Victoria Police to investigate this incident.
“We rely on community information to solve wildlife crimes,” they said.
Police said it was “under investigation into the alleged animal cruelty and firearms violations.”
