Traveller Jobi Lee Varey, brother of notorious cat killer and wildlife persecutor Josh ‘Percy’ Varey, was caught in the Cotton Tree Lane area of Colne where officers saw him going into the river to retrieve a dead bird. Varey, who had an air rifle, put the duck next to another dead bird on the grass.

Magistrates were told how Varey struck without permission and out of the ” duck shooting season”.

The ground worker said he often went to the area to shoot birds to feed his bird of prey.

Varey’s lawyer told the court his client had gone to shoot rabbits, which he had done previously, with permission. He claimed Varey had acted out of ignorance rather than committing an intentional offence.

Varey admitted killing a wild bird – a Manky Mallard and a Mandarin duck, on April 17, 2018.

He was fined £200, with £85 costs and a £30 victim surcharge.

  1. Bit Of Work Both Of The Scum Wants.
    They wouldn’t have the energy to go out Shooting Wildlife, or go out Killing Cats.
