The dingo is a fine looking animal, unique to our continent and it roams freely around the Outback.<\/p>\n

It’s features distinguish it from other dogs. It yelps or howls but doesn’t bark. Dingoes are usually cream to reddish brown in colour like this one. Their ears are always erect.<\/p>\n

Together with feral domestic dogs they have long been a real menace to the sheep industry which loses large numbers of animals to dog attacks.<\/p>\n

These days there’s probably more domestic dogs that turn wild, or domestic dogs that have interbred with the dingo causing the problems for pastoralists and that requires widespread baiting programs.<\/p>\n

The cattle industry, on the other hand is not affected by the dingo which generally lives on kangaroos, rabbits and other small animals and reptiles.<\/p>\n

Dingos are thought to have been introduced into Australia thousands of year ago and are related to dogs of South East Asia.<\/p>\n

This was shot on a long zoom (300mm) at f8, 1\/1250 sec, ISO 200. I haven’t cropped this photography mainly to put the dingo in the country it normally roams.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
