Merino lambs cluster tightly in a steel drafting race, their woolly backs marked with a distinctive green stripe indicating recent treatment. A worker in a vibrant lime-green jacket carefully manages the livestock, her movements precise and methodical in the sun-drenched sheep yards of rural Victoria. Another worker in a neutral-toned work shirt stands in the background, overseeing the animal health procedures with professional concentration. The metal sheep handling equipment - a Racewell model - gleams in the harsh Australian daylight, surrounded by dusty paddock and metal livestock yards. Blue hoses and medical supplies hint at the ongoing process of drenching and vaccination, critical tasks in maintaining the health of a prime merino flock. This scene captures the meticulous care and technological precision of modern Australian sheep farming, where animal welfare and efficient management intersect under the wide open skies of the agricultural landscape.
