Wandering Livestock
Are you the owner or caretaker of livestock? If so, does the Shire have your up-to-date contact information in the event your stock are found wandering or, even worse, involved in an accident?
It is vital that together we make our roads as safe as possible and landowners are responsible for keeping stock securely confined. Failure to securely confine stock could result in animals being impounded and incurring an infringement. The Shire may also issue a fencing notice on property owners whose fences are required to be improved to a standard to ensure stock is securely contained.
If you haven’t already done so, we are asking all livestock owners/managers to provide us with your current contact information so we are able to contact you should you have straying livestock.To make it easy, there is an online form below.
