The live sheep export industry will not be shut down as Australia is showing the world it is a reliable exporter, Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull says.
Thousands are sheep are in limbo in a feedlot in Perth after their exporter had its licence suspended, but the Prime Minister rejected calls for the industry to be shut down.
"If we want to maintain export markets and the jobs that come with that, we've got to be a reliable exporter," he told ABC radio Perth on Thursday.
