On a rural property outside Blackall, the disappearance of livestock has left police trying to trace the movement of an unusually large flock. More than 5,500 Dorper sheep, including ewes and rams, were reported stolen earlier this year in Queensland. According to Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC News), the animals are estimated to be worth more than $1.7 million, making the reported loss a substantial one for the property involved. Police say the sheep were taken between February and May 2026 from land along the Blackall-Isisford Road. Several months after the reported thefts, detectives are still seeking information from people who may have noticed unusual stock movements or transport activity during that period.
