Any one come across feral horses in the alpine areas in there travels?

Lots up around Long Plain, have seen mobs of 30 or so up round Coberras and Native Dog Campground.

Regards,

destroy the lot, put a bounty on them , cull them for pet food.

do the same for every feral animal in Australia

Horse meat can be for human consumption, export it to Europe or Japan. I saw it on offer in Japan, and europeans make salami from it. same as camels and buffalos. Market it properly and some $ out of them.

We were at Ware's yards and Currango homestead last weekend. one mob we saw amounted to about 100 head. There sure are plenty to be seen.

I sailed a new pearling mother ship from Japan to Darwin when I was young and adventurous. The first thing the Customs in Darwin asked was: "do you have any horsemeat?"

As it turned out the Japanese deck hands did have some tins of it, which the Customs promptly confiscated. Not sure if the concern was about the horses, or if it may have been on quarantine grounds. Whatever the case, it was a banned import.

The French seem quite partial to it, but it turns my stomach.
It's a really sweet smell when butchered, I can't handle it, I think because I've been around horses for so much of my life.

It's pure politics in NSW parliament.
