It is understood she was herding the bull when she was struck into a fence railing by the animal at around 11.30am.

The woman was taken to Esperance Hospital but died a short time later.

A police spokesman said Worksafe had been advised and were investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident.

A report will be prepared for the coroner.
