They aren't wild. They're completely reliant on stupid humans for food. The ones around Eli creek and orchid beach have so much human interaction they might as well be domesticated dogs.

The information isn't working. The dingos are getting bolder, are not afraid of humans and when they don't get what they want (food) they become aggressive. They're also pack animals and extremely smart. They see one dingo successfully open an Esky/tent/get food from a human and it doesn't take long for the pack to think that that's a decent way to go about it.

Yes the tourists are stupid, but what's happened is that the dingoes now believe that every human is a food source. Those backpackers that fed the dingo and got away with it don't suffer the consequences of their actions, it's every human than comes after them.

The population is estimated to be between 100-200 (I think it's much higher than that) you can't seriously think that if one of these animals repeatedly attacks people that the animal should be protected?

When the recent dog attacks happened in Brisbane, everyone expects the dog to be put down. I have no idea why the same isn't applied to dingoes. The local indigenous leaders are in agreement as well.

Thunder for Lemmy is now on the Google app store. Best app available IMO

An auto mall is obviously for someone with a lot more disposable income than myself. I thought the internet basically killed this style of retail

Courier Mail is the only news source I can find. I know people are touchy about news corp, so here's this instead.

How did you add an image?

 

Just signed up today with my favourite 3rd party app biting the dust tomorrow.

So far it's taken a bit of getting used to, but I quite like the look of the thunder app with Lemmy. Be keen to keep an eye out for kbin apps too.

Looks pretty quiet here though. Going to miss the 'why is there a helicopter over my suburb?' posts
