This Kiwi and his employer aren't the only farmers left in the country whom still think wedgies are major predators of lambs... I really hope the popular media can pick this up and introduce a bit of science to it and rid our culture of this myth.

From comments by the magistrate he is also being deported back to NZ.  Hopefully his employers will also be prosecuted.
