Moorland bestiality: Man allegedly known as 'Beast Boy' is unmasked after being arrested and charged with vile animal sex crimes

EXCLUSIVE

A man accused of being the biggest producers of animal exploitation content in New South Wales can be unmasked as a Yowie enthusiast.

Colin Baker, 38, who goes by the online pseudonym 'Beast Boy', was arrested at a property in Moorland, about 30km north of Taree, at 7.30am on Tuesday. 

In footage of the arrest, several officers lead the man in a black T-shirt, shorts and sandals out of his home and towards a waiting police car. 

RSPCA officers were later seen picking up and petting a small white dog before removing it from the property in a kennel. 

Baker is accused of using encrypted messaging apps to allegedly share bestiality material featuring dogs, sheep, goats, chickens and a dead kangaroo. 

A photo posted on social media shows Baker wearing a shirt with 'Yowie Country' emblazoned on the front as he gives two thumbs up.

It was the same shirt Baker was seen wearing as he was handcuffed and led away from the Moorland property on Tuesday. 

He was charged with eight counts of bestiality, six counts of producing bestiality material, four counts of disseminating bestiality material, as well as possessing child abuse material, and using a carriage service to access and solicit child abuse material. Police expect there to be more charges. 

The 38-year-old was refused bail and appeared in Taree Local Court on Tuesday. 

The arrest comes after police discovered the online persona 'Beast Boy' after executing a series of search warrants across the Greater Sydney area. 

Police took electronics and hard drives from the home on the Mid North Coast to be forensically examined in coming weeks. 

A dog which was allegedly sexually abused by the man was also seized by the RSPCA. 

Police said inquiries under Strike Force Trawler would continue.

Anyone with information has been urged to contact Crime Stoppers.
