The Dingo is a Wild dog found only in
Australia, with a shoulder height of 24cm.
Probably introduced by Aboriginal settlers
thousands of years ago, it was the only large
carnivorous animal found in Australia by the
first European clonists.
It has large, erect ears, a wolf-like head,
and long legs, and is usually a yellowish
red colour, with white markings.
A nocturnal hunter, it prays on small
animals and often kills livestock.
