Episode 115. Dr Dave Morrell – A Kimberley icon
Dave Morrell grew up on cattle stations between Fitzroy Crossing and Halls Creek in the 1960’s, and returned to the Kimberley to set up the first vet practice in Broome.
From operating on animals on his kitchen table under the light of a torch, to treating exotic animals from across the globe – there there isn’t much he hasn’t seen or done. He has been an instrumental part of the pastoral industry for over 40 years.
As if being an extremely handy veterinarian is enough – Dave is a Brilliant bush poet. He recently released his first, and long awaited book, titled Johnny James and other verses.
