Which country is the dog "dingo" native to?

Sorry. I have to say it. Maybe the dingo ate your baby.

So disrespectful saying the dingo ate my baby as a family really lost their baby girl this way. Im sorry to say shame on you peeps but I can understand how a line from a film can get stuck in ones head. Sadly this true story wasn’t believed for many years in fact the mother actually spent time in prison for it & it severed a family & their marriage. Many years later we have many dingo & moreover dog attacks some resulting in death enough to prove she was persecuted for a crime she more than likely did not commit. I think there’s been many cases on the holiday destination, Fraser Island off Queensland I remember hearing .. where the dingoes have hunted in packs & even been able to undo some buckles on tents etc they once quite recently, were very nearly able to obtain the infant had his family not intervened the dingo actually had stolen the babe mumma had to wrestle him free & she was surrounded by a pack in the dark oh how very very scary.

Daybonn, Send your tirade to the writers of Seinfeld.

The Dingo is a species all to its own. It can breed with dogs but it was never a domestic animal until it lived with the Aborigines. Some of the information here needs to be checked and corrected

My grammar OCD was triggered by this question. 😨

great info!

The dingo is not from Australia but introduced around 4000 years ago from Asia

MrTeddyBear, the dingo is not native to Australia

sorry but those look like Shiba Inus not dingos.

DynamiteDingo, of course, because they are pack animals.

Norbert, Classic 👍

if owned and trained properly they are the most loyal pet you'll have.

80085, Yes they look so very similar to Koreas Jindo dog, don't they?

l wish human beings could mate (love) for life

Norbert, That is very disturbing... 😃🥴

RushMama2112, Do you mean the word "Native"? 😀

Australia , it's the land down under , Australia 🇦🇺 : it's a place of wonder

Jonesy, So how come Australia is overrun with rabbits? And if the earliest known fossil is 3450 years old , that’s not when there was a land bridge

* Seshati *, OMG ITS TRUE HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT

the dingo is not native to Australia

The dingo might have come here when there was a land bridge to Asia. Whether they come with the aboriginal people or by themselves is up for dabate. It has been shown that where there are dingo's, there is a noticeable decrease of feral animals, like cats, foxes and rabbits.

Vmoney, yes its from the show Seinfeld. I'm sure no one is intending harm on real life situations. Its an expression from Seinfeld.

my favourite dog is a poodle

GhangisDON1701, They came with the ABORIGINES not the settlers. The southern tribes called them Warrigals. In. Melbourne there is a Warrigal Road.

the dingo ate my baby...lighten up.

UnsparingHawk101, 😞😞

Scottish Fraulein, Well ,we are not here for a correct English lesson. But go ahead if it’s fun for you,,I really needed you when I was growing up,, my slang is terrible,

Norbert, hi

Norbert, I immediately thought about Elaine.

dingos are not native to Australia, they are descendants of dogs brought by settlers that escaped into the wild, not native
