Around 80 sheep died on a small air freight consignment from Australia to Indonesia, report the Australian Livestock Exporters’ Council (ALEC) and LiveAir, the industry representative for Australia's live export by air freight. The incident, reported to the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry, is under investigation. The air freight industry, which generates $75-$100m AUD in annual revenue, transports livestock to over 35 destinations and has seen 74,000 head shipped annually.

Australia is planning to end live sheep exports by sea by 2028 and has allocated a $107 million package to support farmers and the supply chain in Western Australia.
