[8] In 1936 Toorale was placed on the market, at this time it occupied an area of 850,452 acres (344,166 ha) and was stocked with 54,355 sheep and 1,089 mixed cattle.

It had been planned to turn the area into a National Park with the century-old dams to be demolished with the water flowing into the river system.
