Listen: Craig Wiggins on earthquakes, cattle and the downfall of society

Rural commentator Craig "Wiggy" Wiggins caught up with The Country Early Edition's Dom George for his weekly report on Wiggy's World.

This week Craig is off to the Waimate Rodeo for a spot of commentating then to the Methven Race Track for the Xmas racing meet where he's clerking the course.

Wiggins then takes aim at NZ's poor roading network, highlighted by the recent earthquakes.

Wiggy also reports on the cash he's received for his cattle recently, but warns of similar circumstances he's seen in Canada where too much was paid for cattle and health and safety compliance costs also hurt some farmers.

Finally Dom and Wiggy discuss the tasering of a goat in Oamaru which Wiggins reckons is a prime example of how society is losing its mind!
