Members of an anti-hunting group have come under fire for posting a barrage of 'sick and twisted' comments about a father-of-three who died on a pigeon shooting trip. 

Marco Cavola, 42, was accidentally shot dead on March 25 when a hunting trip to Rossie Estate in Perthshire, Scotland, went badly wrong.

But among the heartfelt tributes which have been pouring in for the Italian businessman, a collection of so-called 'hunt monitors' have let rip with a string of nasty comments, including suggestions that his death was 'karma'.

The North East Hunt Monitors today posted a news article on their Facebook page relating to Mr Cavola's death, under the caption 'oh dear'. 

It attracted 130 comments within hours as trolls unloaded a torrent of messages celebrating the fatal accident which left three young children, aged 14, 12 and 7, fatherless and a wife widowed.

Helen Louise Rowan wrote that she 'bloody love this. Hahaha' while Barbara Rehman commented: 'Karma is brilliant.' 

Sharon Dolittle Young mockingly wrote 'aww diddums' and Jamie Bennion even commented that it was 'vermin control'.
