Western Australia Police are on the hunt for a prisoner who escaped from Pardelup Prison Farm, near Mt Barker, yesterday.
The 42-year-old prisoner, Joel Back, is described as being 175cm tall with dark hair, a tattoo on his left arm and a scar on his forehead.
Back was last seen wearing green clothing.
Police have released an image of Back, but are advising members of the public not to approach him.
Anyone who believes they have seen Back is being urged to call police immediately.
Pardelup Prison Farm is a 6,500 acre minimum-security facility designed to reintegrate offenders back into the community.
The facility, located around four hours south east of Perth, is a working farm which breeds cattle and sheep to feed the prison population in Western Australia.
