can someone help me? Does this look like something has eaten these daffodils or have they been cut off?

I have some that have been eaten right through like yours I can see a little slug/snail trail on some bits though. They can scrap the succulent bits across then the stems dry and break.
But some birds also take leaves this time of year for nesting.
Wind damage can also break them then they might be chewed or removed by wildlife.
I can see why you think they look cut though.
Also from the looks of the dis colouring some have been done a number of days ago?
There planted on a natural burial ground and all the other plots have daffodils all over them, this is the only one that every single daffodil has been distroyed and the only one that looks like something been at them.
if it was on the edge, or there we’re others round the area like this I wouldn’t of thought twice about them being cut, but the straight edges and none others being damaged I’m concerned it’s been done by someone, rather than the wildlife.
im just not sure as I don’t have any idea when it comes to plants
