Des images de chapeaux, d&#8217;éperons, de chevaux attelés par des cowboys parcourant de grands espaces vierges au coucher du soleil.</p><p>Évidemment la réalité est beaucoup moins romantique. Les chevaux sont  partis depuis longtemps, emportant avec eux les éperons. Mais les  grands espaces et les chapeaux sont toujours là! Certaines stations dans le <a
href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territoire_du_Nord" target="_blank">Territoire du nord</a> peuvent atteindre la superficie de la Belgique ! Dans leur travail journalier les <em>cowboys</em> peuvent aisément parcourir plusieurs centaines de kilomètres, sur des terrains parfois assez difficiles. On comprend facilement pourquoi les 4&#215;4 ont vite remplacé les chevaux.</p><p
style="width: 100%;">Nous sommes loin des élevages en batteries et de la surpopulation quasi-carcérale du bétail. Les troupeaux sont libres de gambader où bon leur semble dans des espaces gigantesques.</p><p

style="width: 100%; display: block; margin-top: 10px;">Ces territoires sauvages, libres d&#8217;habitations humaines sont aussi propices au développement de la faune sauvage native du continent. Il est assez fréquent de voir des kangourous, émeux et dingos côtoyer tranquillement les troupeaux.</p><p

style="width: 100%; display: block;">Alors? Les Australiens champions du monde de l&#8217;agriculture biologique ou même biodynamique? En fait la réalité est encore un peu moins contrastée. Une fois que les jeunes veaux on atteint la taille critique qui leur permet de ne pas se faire attaquer par les dingos, ils se voient enlever leur cornes, castrer et reçoivent une dose d&#8217;hormone. Les propriétaires de station disent que les hormones peuvent aider le bétail à passer d&#8217;éventuelles saisons trop sèches. Le kangourou pourrait également remplacer le bœuf. Il a l&#8217;avantage d&#8217;être parfaitement adapté au climat, et donc de consommer beaucoup moins d&#8217;eau<sup><a

Un vache consomme environ 30 litre d&amp;#8217;eau par jour">2</a></sup>.</p><p
style="width: 100%; display: block;">La gestion des déchets est également problématique. Dans un pays comme l&#8217;Australie et en particulier dans les territoires reculés, il n&#8217;existe pas de ramassage systématique des ordures. Les stations ont dans l&#8217;ensemble leur propre décharge et l&#8217;on y brûle tout simplement les déchets.</p><p
