I don't care what QPWS say or any Govt or University Animal Ethics Committee profess to be worlds best practice, ear tagging should never be done to dingoes. It should be banned period. The only real reason why they are tagged is so it makes the dingo easier to identify for someone to report to the Rangers where inevitably the dingo will be killed. But when a Ranger damages the dingo's ear cartilage and the ear flops over that ear is severely compromised for hearing and hunting.
