I might be blind but I see very few water troughs for farm animals from Shannon onwards. Might see livestock hanging around those that are present but never see them drinking. Are those empty? The second thing is no shelterbelt, most evidently around the Opiki area which as most people know has high winds which are bleak and cold in the winter, add rain into the mix - not pleasant for any living species. In the summer the animals have nowhere to get shade from the sun. Why do farming people think their animals dont need shelter? Wonder how they would manage having to experience those conditions 24hrs/7days a week? Now if farmers see this and have a reaction My guess will be 'guilty'. If they are doing the right thing by their livestock then congratulations are due. Cheers
