Customer 'disgusted' after seeing crow eat dead rat in retail park car park

A customer has been left 'disgusted' after witnessing a crow eating a dead rat in the car park of a Bristol retail park.

The customer, who wished to remain anonymous, had been using the McDonald's Drive-Thru service at Avonmeads Retail Park in Bristol on Wednesday, March 23 between around 1.30pm and 2pm in the afternoon.

After ordering themselves a milkshake and ice cream they soon spotted the crow tucking into its own lunch, in broad daylight.

Speaking to BristolLive, the customer said: "I felt sick. I couldn't stop thinking about it. It's disgusting. I'm not sure if I want to go back either, my whole day is ruined thinking about it.

"People were looking but just ignoring it. The area should be cleaned, it's not nice. Nobody wants to see things like that, it's disgusting.

"It's shocking to see things like that, especially when you're ordering food, it's really not nice."

The customer didn't report what they saw to staff of the McDonald's branch but did say: "I have seen before that things like that are in the car park".

As the car park isn't technically part of McDonald's remit, the fast food chain was unable to comment on the matter. Bristol Live has approached the owners of the Avonmeads Retail Park site, Realty Income, for comment.
