The
Dingo was introduced to Australia some 3000-4000 thousand years ago. Since the disappearance of the Tasmanian Tiger (thylacine) it is now Australia's
largest surviving carnivore.
For some they are still seen as an introduced species and a pest, for others
they are seen as endemic and beneficial for controlling introduced species
such as cats and rabbits.
This Dingo resides at the Australian Reptile Park near Sydney.
