Abstract
This month, the Victorian government announced on-the-spot fines for trespassers on farms following an upper house inquiry into how animal activism affects agriculture. <br/> It’s the latest in a string of new state and federal laws designed to crack down on activists who trespass on farms – often to gather video evidence of alleged animal cruelty, which is later distributed to the public. <br/> But amid the flurry of attention on activists, another group of trespassers on farms has largely escaped attention: illegal hunters.
