You want to see what the live stock is like after being in the rear trailer of a triple road train for 500k's on a dirt road....They always load the naggs on the 3rd and 2nd trailer...and the good ones on the front trailer.

Imagine yourself standing in a dust storm for 5 hours, ingesting dust....get the picture ?

There are DPI codes of practice regarding transportation of livestock regarding maintenance of equipment, handling of livestock, watering of stock in the heat etc... but they are rarely enforced due to the lack of government resources.


I did livestock briefly quite a few years back, but it wasnt my cup of tea
