More to the south we see a typical, but sad landscape. The very interesting Big Desert vegetation here is cut and transformed in a very poor pasture. Only a few animals can survive here on a enormous terrain. The Australians traded the interesting biotope of the desert for some cattle, which has problems to survive. It does not seem profitable. A farmer told us indeed that, to survive, ever bigger farms are required. More than 90 % of this area is destroyed. If this was their intention, the Australians are very successful. Congratulations!
