HEARTLESS drunken revellers are believed to have flung a dead 'dolphin' out of a window during a wild party at university halls.
The shocking images appear to show the men dancing around a student apartment holding the animal in the air.
Another picture shows the dolphin's crumpled carcass in a flowerbed after it is believed to have been thrown from a window during the hedonistic party.
Footage from outside is thought to show the moment the drunken yobs lobbed the animal from the third floor of the complex.
It is not clear whether the poor porpoise was alive or dead in the shocking snaps, taken at Parchment Square student accommodation in Cork, Ireland, reports Sunday World.
They were shared by Cork radio station Red FM on Facebook, sparking outrage from online viewers.
The post read: “I got these photos this morning from a friend. Apparently they’re doing the rounds. They’re disgusting. I think it’s a seal or dolphin.
“The poor animal. I don’t know how or why they did this. It’s appalling. It seems to be students. I was a student myself once and I know what goes on. Most of it is harmless fun but this is disgraceful.”
RedFM later said it had been told the mammal could be a porpoise.
They said: “Just been told by a marine biologist it is most likely a porpoise.
“They are small toothed whales that are very closely related to oceanic dolphins.”
A spokesman for the Cork Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals told Independent.ie: “The mind boggles with people’s stupidity.
“Anybody with any level of cop-on would know it’s not right.
“They’ll think twice before they do something like this again.”
Parchment Square has been contacted for a comment.
