Analysis of cruelty charges against Moola Bulla Station owner
The primary reason for rangeland cattle farming in the Kimberley (WA) is live export. The recent verdict on the cruelty case against Nico Botha from Moola Bulla Station illustrates how the law protects cattle farmers in northern WA, allowing procedures on live export cattle that would be regarded as 'unacceptable cruelty' elsewhere in Australia. Let no-one be in any doubt: for many live export cattle, the cruelty starts at home in Australia. VALE commends the whistleblower for his actions that resulted in this court case.
