$141,000.
That'll teach those bastards a lesson... it's cheap to do illegal shit.
I wonder what a normal old citizen would be fined for clearing that much land?
Probably the same, but obviously that would be a lot more relative to their income.
Cheap to do, expensive to prove.

I've been to Perth and don't even know how big that is. Further down, apparently around 14 hectares, i.e. 0.14km².
