A SOUTH West farm has been the target of a cruel attack, with a vandal – or vandals – destroying kilometres of fencing around the property in addition to water troughs and tanks.

Maneroo, which is located on the Princes Highway at Greenwald, is just shy of 1000ha and is home to around 800 head of cattle and 8000 head of sheep.
