Does your dog bark cracks?
I can spot an idiot at 5yards, and you're it!!! We are a pest! Destructive and have our fingers in everything we shouldn't. Perhaps you're the one who needs to seriously re-evaluate what we as a species are doing to this planet... and get a clue
What a flattering title!Please Mr.Brains
I never mentioned the dingo. However I assume you don't think kangaroos can be 'pests' either?explain to the rest of us why an animal like a dingo should be classified as a pest??
I guess they arrived in this country all by themselves??
So now you not only self identify as a pest, but also identify others as such based on race?No doubt they've lived here a lot longer than white man!
Well, personally, I've not wiped out any species. So again I'll have to object to your 'we'. Did you manage to complete a census of Australian species pre dingo, oh mighty one?But have they wiped out more species than we have?
One question mark will do, think of the bandwidth! Wait, so all these introduced animals are pests, but the dingo is not? Do you actually know what you are spewing?Did they introduce cane toads, cats, rabbits, foxes, camels, deer and a trillion other species that are all doing a fantastic job at reducing habitat and opportunity for true Aussie native animals???
Again, your self esteem issues are shining brightly. There are people you can talk to, you know?Oh no, we're not a pest you ignoramus!
No, I just know that I personally have not introduced any nonnative species, caused the extinction of any species, destroyed any environment or otherwise pillaged this country. I'll continue to live happily without the strange, misplaced guilt you seem to enjoy carrying.What an absolute clueless turkey!
abbott we are a pest... if humans all died off everything else would thrive... simple
hi,
i am after a male dingo to be paired up with me female black and tan girl. anyone that can help please let me know. Oh yeah she is a pure bred dna and everything tested.
hahaha goodone mark.... don't forget to add watching every step to be sure not to tred on any ants..... but what about the poor micro organisms.... **** he just can't win this i don't thinkNow now RBB, Abbott might be an extremist greenie riding around on a puch bike living out of a cave.
i thought that the dingo was introduced with the aboriginies.... as companion animals and hunting dogs.... .
So Abbott when you lay claim you have had no impact on species ....do you not live in a house?...as your house at one stage would have been a habitat for some species of animal /insect/plant ...you may have not directly had an impact but you par take in it indirectly by living the way you do ...EVERYONE is guilty in some way or another ....most people try and minimalise the impact ,but we still are not scott free of taking any responsibility....this was mooses point as well when he said WE ....surely you can agree with this for goodness sake..

Good point.. People seem to forget that humans are part of nature. We are a natural occurence, so we aren't doing unnatural things. If humans never turned up animals would still become extinct (dinosaurs are a good example, plus millions and millions of other species who all evolved and died out before humans turned up on the planet)Everything would live, breed, die and eventually become extinct even if humans never evolved.
hey walpole,
and holy crap, 10% of a farmers wage every week!!!!!!!!!!!!!! bahahaha........ whats the point of farming then???maybe 5% in a year check your facts....

yeh wage mate.. most people earn them from a business. not the gross value of their property and livestock just the couple hundred bucks a week most people pay them selves when they have a business and i believe farming is..
My facts are pretty good i grew up on a farm my grandfather was a dog bounty hunter most his life and i have spent most my life hunting and watching animals.
when you spend some time on a place with a lot of dogs not just the odd one or 2 come talk to me. then we can talk FACTS together..
hey walpole,
i know it's not the same as owning a second dingo, but have you given thought to artificial insamination??? there are a few programms out there (one in syndey i think) dedicated to breeding and preserving pure bred dingoes, even the pure bred by thier sub-species(well not yet but i think they're trying to sub-specie them) like alpine dingo ect.
perhaps if your just chasing another dingo for breeding then artificial insamination is another option and i'm sure you'd be able to purchass dingo semen from them..... might be worth looking into i your having trouble locating a male in the mean time....
and for the few that said they dont believe people should keep dingoes as they're wild animals by nature!!!!! ***!!!!!! do you not keep reptiles? birds maybe? stop being a bunch of bloody hipocrits........... if you feel so strongly about the fact that it is a wild animal then i think you may want to consider selling off your reptiles cos they're wild at heart to!!! the fact is dingoes aren't a dog but a strain of wolf. and to the one who said it looks like a dog so people will think it's safe, thats a load of crap to. should be warry of all dogs you don't know.....because yeah, i know a dog bites to. all the wild dingoes i've encountered have been fine when i went on my bush walks and they even run from me and my little foxy when i had him. never had a problem with them... like snakes they are somewhat misunderstood.
Also humans are a pest and RBB and moose got it so i'm not going to repeat. only say that our everyday lives impact upon wildlife someway somehow...so get over yourselfe abbot.

also like said the dingo is nearly extinct due to hybridisation, the only pure strain left is the fraser island (or the largest pur popultion) and a few pockets around mainland australia and some islands. but yeah nearly no pue dingoes left in the wild
i thought that the dingo was introduced with the aboriginies.... as companion animals and hunting dogs.... sounds pretty domesticated to me, and their relatives that still live, well where they decending from in.... somewhere along the indonesian isles, the origin of aboriginal people and dingoes they still are companion animals and hunting dogs...... so i think you'll find they're slightly more domestic than ya may think.
Seem domestic enough for the aboriginals.
Humans are not the only creature to impact the Earth. How did all the species that disappeared before humans became 'big' go?

If the part in bold is aimed at me i challenge you to find me saying that they shouldn't be kept in captivity. You and others seem to love making the analogy that keeping snakes means that it is ok to keep dingoes, the two do not compare. That is like comparing keeping an elephant to keeping a seal. The needs of the animal are completely different and you need to understand that.
You really need to do some research and proof reading before you spill your heart out like that. Dingoes are not domestic animals. Semi domesticated i agree with but if you try to keep one like a dog you will have problems. It appears to me that your post is more full of some kind of misguided romance about dingoes than it is of experience and understanding.
