Meet the Dingos of Prospect Park Zoo

www.prospectpar...
Prospect Park Zoo director Denise McClean introduces two pairs of dingoes now making their debut: Alkira and Binda, and Dacu and Cobar. Naturally, these four dogs, who hail from Down Under, have been given Aboriginal names. The dogs roam Brooklyn's own slice of Australian scrubland, part of our Discovery Trail.

Initially I thought they are normal dogs. Thank you 👍

That is a really beautiful enclosure for the lovely dingoes. Well done, a credit to you.

[@DeeMcClean]

they are indeed from Lyn! She loved the exhibit and we love her dogs!

[@Jeremyramone]

that is interesting, i was recently reading about a species of dingo that was quite large and inhabited this region during that time. cheers from san diego

Just thought you might like to know the dingo arrived in Australia over 18,000 years ago.
These dingoes look as tho they have come from Lyn Watson's Dingo Sanctuary in Victoria , Australia. Is that where you got them from ?. Looks like they have a wonderful enclosure.

what is the exhibition the fennec fox in

[@Jeremyramone]

these animals are not wild, they are free

[@ThePaperCUTS]

Sadly that Dingo exhibit looks nothing like the Australian bush.... Maybe they couldn't import the plants because of customs regulations. I guess they did their best.
