the Department of Agriculture WA worked to fence off sections of the land so they could herd cattle and wild donkeys out of it to then reseed the area with buffelgrass, birdwood grass, and kapok bush.
Legend. Near where I live, just over the hill an hour, is land that has been utterly destroyed by sheep grazing. It’s so jarring going from world heritage rainforest to just these flat desolate grasslands with almost no biodiversity.
It’s been that way generations now, so people just think that’s how it should be, but the uncleared hills are lush forest. It’s a crying shame how we use land in this country.
It sounds like they are just going to put cattle back on the land again. Rinse and repeat?
Yeah, they should mine for lithium instead. /s
The article says no, just that it should be capable of supporting “sustainable” grazing if that’s possible. But who knows?
