Coomalie Holding Depot, Bachelor NT, Australia, 19 August 2022 Feeding cattle at sunrise at Coomalie Holding Depot. The livestock kept here are destined for export from Australia to Indonesia and Malaysia. The cattle are brought here from cattle stations in the outback of Australia’s Northern Territory and kept here to be inoculated and prepared for shipment. These young cows and buffalos have been bred in near wild conditions, and have rarely been fed anything besides wild vegetation, and have to adjust to living in pens with other animals and eating hay, pelletized food, and drinking from a trough.
