    Madonna has been attacked by anti-hunt campaigners for allowing clients to shoot birds on her country estate.

    Last year Madonna won the right to ban ramblers from her footpaths, however, according to Female First Madge is making £10,000 every time she allows a party to hunt on her property.

    The League Against Cruel Sports has now dedicated a page of their website to the Queen of pop accusing her of encouraging gamekeepers to rear millions of birds in factory-farming conditions and inviting shooting enthusiasts to kill predators and release animals in large and unnatural numbers.

    They write on their website: "For the really rich, really keen and really star- struck, a day's shooting can be arranged on Madonna and Guy Ritchie’s Wiltshire, England estate for a mere £10,000.

    "She has been fighting to keep ramblers off her footpaths, but is open for business to paying customers."

    They don’t call her the Material Girl for nothing y’know…
