The Queensland Government has ordered an immediate investigation into alleged cruelty to sea turtles and dugongs by Indigenous hunters.
Queensland Environment Minister Vicky Darling says she was disturbed by footage aired on ABC TV's 7.30 program last night.
It showed sea turtles and dugongs being butchered and environmentalists say the meat is being traded under the guise of traditional hunting.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
