Thread: Stock on doc land...

I know a guy who was hunting in private bush adjacent to a sheep farm. He noted several sheep and lambs well inside the boundary. They'd clearly missed at least one shearing, and the lambs hadn't been docked. No tags. He left them, checked with the owner of the bush block, who gave him the go-ahead. Went back and took the animals. Seems fair to me in that example.

Was the owner of the bush same as adjacent sheep farm?

No, and to my knowledge the sheep farmer wasn't asked/informed.
