Answer 4

Dingoes.

Eye-catching, curious and sometimes dangerous, the dingo is a common sight across Australia.

The dingo — Australia’s only native dog — is thought to have descended from a family of wild Asian dogs.

Introduced to Australia about 4000–6000 years ago, dingoes probably found their way to Australia through trading between Aboriginal people and Indonesians fishing in our waters.

Today, dingoes are found in many parts of Australia.

Dingoes are Australia’s largest meat-eater (carnivore) and hunt many other animals such as the kangaroo. The dingo is thought to have contributed to the mainland extinction of the thylacine (Tasmanian tiger) through increased competition for food.

Unable to bark, the dingo howls at night to keep the family group together and to warn others to stay away.

Watch out — dingoes can bite. A dingo is a wild animal and can be dangerous when provoked.
