Anger has been expressed after a video has emerged on social media showing people hitting golf balls into the sea from the Cliffs of Moher.

A Marine Pollution Bulletin study has found that around 300 million golf balls are lost into the sea in the US every year and scientists have said compounds contained within them can be toxic to some fish.
