The former veterinary surgeon is also a poet and an author who has spent his life on the land, refusing to retire from his 5,300-hectare cattle property in the Maranoa region until his mid-90s. Much of his longevity he puts down to the simple lifestyle he enjoyed in the bush. "It's because I do things differently," Mr Kruger said from an armchair at his aged care home. "I lived very close to nature and I ate mostly what I grew in the garden or the orchard or the farm." #OldestAustralian #QueenslandNews ABC News provides around the clock coverage of news events as they break in Australia and abroad, including the latest coronavirus pandemic updates.
