The Dingos aren't the danger, tourists are the danger.
One of the most beautiful dogs on the planet. They explained the reason that feeding them is bad, they get used to it and won't hunt like normal. They go looking for the easy feed and when it doesn't happen they may try to steal food. Which leads to aggressive behaviour. Yes it is like feeding a Bear, a pack of dingoes would easily be equal to a bear.
The dingo has been given its own species status, recognising that it is not descended from dogs or wolves.
Genetically is related to the asian grey wolf
@@needaman66 no it is not
Have a look at a tame Dingo. Very informative.

If there's a local feeding dingoes (wongaris), it's more likely that the wongari will bite the hand that isn't feeding it, making it more dangerous for other locals and tourists. They're not aggressive, they're opportunistic; there's no domestication instinct of looking up to humans or thinking of them as a pack leader. They have more the instincts of a fox than a wolf: if it sees a wallaby-sized animal (eg a toddler) and it's catchable, it'll give it a shot.
I think you were trying to say, 'Why don't we domesticate them by feeding them?' Because like tigers, they'll always be wild and can't be trusted to be tame, no matter how much they accept food from humans. They're like coyotes - sly and opportunistic - and not to be trusted.
You forget it took 10 or 20 thousand years to domesticate wolves into dogs. Wongari don't have that species memory: they're not afraid of us, and they're not going to learn that in a hurry. It's suspected they were brought to Australia around 5000 years ago via SE Asia and that's not long enough to domesticate them.
Dingoes aren't dogs and don't have dog behaviours. You aren't safe around them if you don't understand them and don't know which human behaviours can trigger them. I've had Dingoes and love them but never ever relax around them. Mine loved the beach and surfing and ate fish. Prawns and oysters were favourites. It angers me that people who would be terrified of wolves treat Dingoes like sweet puppy dogs. They are pack animals with the same wild instincts. If people can't behave around them then THEY should be banned.
I wonder how old this story is because Fraser Island has gone back to its Aboriginal name K'gari and there's been a couple of incidents recently not mentioned including a young woman who was jogging on the beach and was set on and chased into the water by four Dingoes who bit her giving her between 30 and 40 bite wounds luckily 2 men driving by managed to chase them off, I've always known that running near wild animals is a bad thing to do. And another video a Dingo walks up to some sunbathers and nips one woman's bum. Unfortunately, the Dingoes are to be euthanased if identified 😢 I was sad and angry that eight animals had been destroyed because that ridiculous woman tried to make them like her as pets 😪😫🤬
If these dingos were starving, a thoughtless tourist giving them one meal is not going to save them. The tourist might feel good about it but they are only pro-longing the agony.
If they genuinely are starving, better to let them starve an die as quickly as possible than make them live another agonising day.
It sounds heartless but it's actually the most humane act apart from euthanising them.
The animals on K'gari (Fraser Island) are the last known enclave of purebred dingos left. Leave them alone!
I went to Fraser Island last year there are heaps of dingoes. But like with dingos anywhere in Australia. You need to treat them like a wild anima
Crocodiles actually do activly hunt and have no qualms eating humans...in fact it is one of the few animals that will happily keep eating humans if allowed.
Hey Phezz. We had a Dingo X Red heeler X Bulldog. He had the kindest nature I've seen in a dog. Except when the pack leader (my ex) wasn't home. Then he'd bark at people walking past the house 😂
We we're told he will attack on command, but not otherwise, as he was 3 when we rescued him from a bullet from up country way. Best dog I've ever had.
We had a rescue dog years ago. He was 5 months old and terribly skinny. I could see a bit of German Shepherd in him, but asked the vet what else. I was told a bit of dingoe. I had to cook him 3 meals a day for ages, gradually introducing meat into the diet. He put on nearly 10 kg in a couple of months, and could still see all his ribs. I found out he was about 80% great Dane. Was HUGE!
He was extremely protective of myself and our kids. My hubs, he loved, to a point, so long as he never raised his voice near me. Then he went into protection mode. Never did anything other than growl though.) ( I'm pretty sure he was abused by a man/Men, so was distrustful of them, generally. )
He was a sweetheart though, except if I went out for more than a couple of hours, then he would pull my clothes of the line. Only mine, mind you.
Have an orphan dingo from the top end.
@sunisbest1234 sounds like a wonderful dog. You are right if someone is cruel or abusive in first six months of life it seems to be imprinted for life but because you rescued him they never forget that either I've got a rescue cat and he never leaves me alone he's sitting by me on the lounge now, he's very weary of strangers but at the RSPCA he came straight to me even though there were 3 other people with me.
@@jonsant7232 I'm quite convinced a lot of animals chose who they want to be with.
After much research into this breeder, I decided to get a Beaglier. ( years after the dane/dingo mix.) There were 6 in the litter. I had wanted a female, but this one pup crawled over to me and into my lap. Thought about it for a night, but couldn't get him out of my mind. Went next day, same thing. Only one who did this. 15 years later, he is still with us. Almost completely deaf, but the nose sure still works very well. Still does "zoomies" every now and then. 💗
And to add, his favourite treat of all time. Carrots! ( he is a little bit vegan. 🤣)
@sunisbest1234 they can see the tattoo on my four head that says sucker or soft touch easy life my cat before this one just turned up one day in a terrible state horribly skinny, face and body all scared from fighting. We took him to the vets to be fixed up and she desexed him for free I kept him, and fed him up we knew he was chipped and found out where he had come from so after a couple of weeks reluctantly took him home. His home was disgusting like you see on TV just foul! sadly they wanted him back 😔 😫 so after a very long sleepless night I got up and there he was sitting on the back doorstep, somehow he walked 2 km back and wanted his breakfast 😅
He was a massive white and black cat who loved his food and the sun I had him for more than 10 years before skin cancer got him 😭 people for weeks after who walk past were asking where's your giant cat? 🙂😊 sorry for the long story 🐈🐈
Dingoes also require a starch and grain free diet. Normal processed food will halve the life of a dingo.
Dingos go to the beach areas because they know food could be around where people are,and food scraps left behind
Yea, if you're beach fishing, almost 100% if your there longer than 1 hour, you will have 1 to 3 dingoes checking you out on the chance of some food. I've seen the island, the wildlife besides the dingoes is gone, they literally have starved themselves out and now it's just a matter of time before the hunger drives them to attack more and more. It's sad, but other than shutting down the island from tourists, the dingoes will be all gone in a decade
I've had an escaped Dingo in my front yard in Melbourne. They are timid, shy and skittish dogs.
It's the tourists that leave scraps out and try and feed them.
My father was a bank manager in PNG and we had 18 dingos (singing dogs) to protect the bank and house. They were NEVER tame.. As kids we would always have to keep them in our line of sight.
I made this comment on an earlier video! It's not the ugly animals you have to watch out for it's the cute cuddly one's! You wont pat ugly crocs, snakes or spiders but you will try patting a roo, wombat or a koala all will damage you if you anger them! Magpies are also a beautiful looking bird and guess what they do...attack you by swooping at your head! Moral of the story is don't mess with our wildlife and they won't mess with you except magpies they're c**ts!
I suddenly realized today that dingo looks so closely resemble to inushiba
They lose their natural fear of humans & that makes them so much more dangerous. Children then will be easy targets for a hungry Dingo Especially as kids tend to run when they are scared which just excites them even more as they are basically sight hunters. If they then bite someone , Even those that are feeding them then the rangers have to put them down.
The more contact with people the more likely theyll bite. Once they come accustomed to eating from people the less theyll hunt their normal prey, then if we refuse to hand over food theyll bite. Or theyll scavenge in our bins and bags, we shoo them away, theyll attack. As for them being by the ocean, this is an island off QLD, it has maybe 200 dingoes. But dingoes are mainly on Australia in the outback aswell. Especially the top half of the country. Alice Springs where Uluru( centre of Aust) is there is a big colony of them.
I had two family dogs attacked by dingos, one was killed the other was bitten very badly, on christmas morning.
Dingoes bodies are made differently. They always look skinny, their hip points are always showing and sometimes their ribs aswell. They dont have a bottomline of their ribcage, the underneath shape is always straight, not rounded like a normal dog. Also a wider bite. So yes they do look skinny but they arent malnourished. Yes, never think of them as normal dogs and pets. They are wild and will never be tamed.
They can and bring down fully grown kangaroos but will take a human out because they are easier.
Hi Phezz just keep an eye on your bait if your fishing there.
they walk the beach looking for animals that have washed up, they can dig up and eat pipi's.
dingo's aren't a problem if you don't feed them all you have to do is watch small children (as you should) and teach your kids not to yell and scream and don't run.
i've seen dingo's all over australia, they smell food they come sniffing around, if they don't find anything they move on.
Dogs, in this case when the dingo bit the girl on tv, is Testing the waters so to speak. Seeing what it can get away with in interaction, will this bring food. If i act like this, will i get food?? Testing the girl's reaction to it nipping her. If she got up and ran, or went lower than what she was positioned as, it would be on, meaning attack mode. Trying to be dominant over her. But nothing was really done to stop the dingo in this clip, so the dingo was allowed to be dominant, hence itll try it again on someone else. This is the reason why the 8 were put down.
They should definitely be removed from the island - the tourists. The dingos were there first and it is their habitat
I agree, unless it's me! 😂
bit of difference between a dingo and a dog
A fundamental reason to not feed the dingos who live in the wild (where they have resources to feed on), is that by feeding them they will cease teaching their own puppies on how to hunt for food and survive in the wild.
That's the issue though.... Fraser island is stripped of other land animal's and food sources, and they are literally starving themselves out. As sad as it is, they need to be relocated or set up a feeding ground or a last resort, shut down the island from tourists if they're so concerned about protecting them
@@republicofcasuals Thanks for highlighting this. Surely, and hopefully, the authorities are taking this into account in its management of the park generally and in respect to the dingos in particular. .
That woman telling the dingo 'naughty ' when it bit the kid, I mean seriously 🤦🏼♀️. These are the types of people who think they are god's gift to the earth and nature, what they are really doing is creating even more problems 🤦🏼♀️😠
If animals did not like the taste of humans then they would not keep eating us.
interesting logic about feeding dingo's so they wont attack people. on the other hand domestic cats are feed really well and yet they still hunt and kill other animals they just don't eat what they kill. maybe the same could be said for dingo's
I'm an idiot so my ideas usually don't pan out lol! 🤣😂
@@TheCommodity no you are not an idiot it's just the way nature works
A pack of dingoes are no different to a pack of hyenas, coyotes, foxes etc.
They are not domesticated. Cross breeding with domestic dogs and bringing the pups up with human contact does not make them safe.
It’s just hard to think this because they look similar to a domestic dog.
Make no mistake a 1/4 dingo in the mix is no different to 1/4 wolf temperament wise.
They do not see humans as dominant. They will just play along being domesticated as a survival trait in that environment but only to a point.
I had a dog that was about 1/8th dingo and although it was fine around the family to a point I would never trust it around children or family members when alone or strangers.
Just got back again in the channel can someone tell me why the channel become a solo react? What happened to the other dude?
As mentioned dingoes aren't cute domesticated dogs. They are hunters often in packs. Being hunters they are opportunists, unpredictable and see small children as prey. Feeding them just makes it all the more dangerous.
100% agree, I mean they are cute... but the rest is 100% spot on.
I have 2 living with me in my house
After the recent attacks, I'd like to see less tourism (I really don't want any tourism at all). The dingo is a beautiful animal. It may look like a dog (that is its downfall), but it most certainly is NOT. It is a wild animal! People have fed them! You can't police it. The recent attacks have seen one of the dingos involved PUT DOWN just a day or so ago! That is a horrible thing. Tourism should be stopped! NOW!
Just clicked on this and...Ughh a current affair never gives the true or full story
You got a link I can look at?
@@TheCommodity oh nah sorry John I don't, that was meant to be more of a generalised comment about a Current Affair as a program, it's known as not a very reliable news source
PHEZZ I know youre just following a certain line of logic but thats just a big NO. Would you think thst with a wolf or a coyote? Tourists and visitors need to understand that Australian wildlufe can be as dangerous as wildlife anywhere else. I guess because theyre unique and furry and appealing tourists assume theyre harmless and everyone wants to come out and cuddle a koala or kangaroo or wombat. Not so. As harmless as elk or bears or wolves or coyotes or cougars or bison etc. and (most) people have the sense to leave them alone. So PSA - heres a tourist tip. DONT try to pat or feed any wildlife you see in the wild. That probably wont end well. Go to a wildlife or conservation park and see them under supervision of the keepers or rangers. And under no circumstances try to pat or feed a dingo. The line "A dingo got my baby" was a real event.
Sadley they attacked a fully grown female the other day and she went into deep water only thing that's saved her was a couple males fought them off she was flown out for many bites and hospitalised if these guy didn't come to her rescue they would've killed her and she gave herself the best chance in the water
The thing with dingo their a pack animal and that's how they attack in packs and why they attacked the female she was alone so they new they had a good chance of taking her down
You have to remember their wild animals they hunt anything they have a chance for food
I think they need to ban tourists staying on beach and only be supervised day trips in groups
Because now talking about killing the one attacking the female as it the second time it attack humans
No their wild and it natural for them
It's why they tell you not to run as it natural for them to chase and bring down what their chasing
Wild animals can never be trusted.
Ah more Channel Nine rubbish. K'gari not Fraser Island, after we learned the truth of Elisa Fraser's lies. Check out the Butchulla people's version of this story. They are the historic custodians of this island.
Fraser Island, Ayers rock etc.
@@jayr4857 and your point is...?
Channel 9 must have not received their narrative payment from the Government yet. I work for a large Australian company and we have been receiving payments to reconcile and promote a certain people to higher management positions.
@@lawlerscorner4420 my point is it's Fraser Island and Ayers rock. That's all I've ever known them as. You can call them what you want. I don't care. That's your choice.
@@jayr4857 and once again your point is...?
Dingoes are not dogs
????????? It's a wild dog you MUPPET! 🤣
@@republicofcasuals no muppet they are not wild dogs
@@lawlerscorner4420 So you're right and the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries in QLD is wrong....... MUPPET!
@@republicofcasuals 🤣🤣🤣🤣 wtf are you rabbiting on about
