Banksy howling wolf artwork removed hours after it was revealed

A fourth Banksy artwork revealed in London in four days appears to have been stolen.

On Thursday the anonymous street artist posted a picture on Instagram of the silhouette of a wolf howling at the moon on a satellite dish in Rye Lane, Peckham, south London.

But within hours the dish was removed and taken away from the scene. The Bristol based artist has unveiled several artworks across different locations in London this week, posting his work on Instagram.

The Bristol based artist unveiled his third piece on Wednesday, which depicts three monkeys seemingly swinging on a railway bridge in Brick Lane, east London.

He has not written a caption for any of the Instagram posts, which has fuelled speculation online about their meaning.
