I was very upset when I heard on news that Qld wildlife service killed two dingoes on Fraser Island.
Those tourists must have had seen the pack of dingoes on beech from some distance. Why they stepped out of car? …. to get closer? Isn’t that tourist’s fault?
For sure if we call dingo WOLF not a dog, tourists would stay in car.
It’s commonly known that people respect lot more wolf than dog. To call all dingoes wolfs regardless if it’s correct or not, would mostly eliminate approach to dingo as dog
It’s enough what damage is done on mainland with 1080 poison bites - banned in most countries as the animal suffers a prolonged and horrific death.
When it comes to Fraser Is. why don’t rangers feed dingoes way, way out areas visited by tourists? Dingoes make packs only if they are extremely hungry. They would stay in area of food supply.
All state and federal governments should step in and start doing something right for those poor native animals.
On our last year 17500km’s travel (mostly on SA & WA bomb roads in deserts) we have had seen only 4 dingoes in very bad condition, but plenty of warning signs for 1080 poison. We traveled same areas 15years there were plenty of dingoes than.
Are we going the same way as our predecessors with Tassie tigers?
