The Western Australian No. 1 Rabbit Proof Fence was the longest unbroken line of fence in the world. When it was completed in 1907 it stretched 1833 kilometres from Starvation Boat Harbour on the south coast to a point near Cape Keraudren on the north west coast.
The Fence was built to stem the devastatingly destructive hordes of rabbits eating their way west across Australia. On completion it was maintained by eight boundary riders.
