Abstract

From the earliest stages of its development, the cattle industry in the Kimberleys has been seriously handicapped by mortality in horses. A plentiful supply of good horses is essential for the successful operation of a cattle station, and when losses occur suitable replacements are often difficult to obtain and they are always costly.
