Destruction by doo gooders that introduced the destroyers.
Cats,dogs,foxes,rabbits,horses,donkeys,camels,pigs,sparrows,starlings,minahbirds,cane toads,carp.......The lsit goes on, just like the pointless blame game and useless bickering.
You enviro frauds are missing the point. Its not just economic and stock losses, the dingo had 10,000 years to find its niche in our fragile ecosystem. These crossbreeds breed more often, hunt differently and can wipe out entire colonies of native fauna in localised areas. They should all be culled. Open your rose covered eyes and look past your own self important noses. The 'unspoilt bush' in australia does not exist. Thanks to 200years of destruction.
Maremma dogs kill vastly less predators than trigger-happy doggers and baiters. There have been many farmers who had much success with them... because they were properly trained and habituated to their new home, which I bet isn't the case with your friends.
I could give you some phone numbers of farmers who have used guard animals and have had nothing but problems! Stll love to know what experience you have had in the area! are you a farmer... or own a maremma dog operation? Marrema dogs if given the chance kill wild dogs! so your condoning this aleged "murder"
Look mate! i have no ambition to go tit for tat with you however! Last week i shot 3 dogs in a single paddock in 1 sitting! The sheep were suposed guarded by 13 Alpacas and as far as they were concerned the dogs that were attacking the sheep were part of the family! Can i ask what experience you have had in this area?
Alpacas are effective for deterring smaller lone predators such as foxes only. You need the right tool for the job and shouldn't dismiss the idea of using guard animals just because someone tried using one type for the wrong task and got no results. Get some well-trained Maremma dogs.
All this hype about hordes of "wild dogs" ripping through sheep is one big scam. Government statistics contradict the claim that there's any significant economic damage done. For example, in 2005 in Victoria there were over 20 million sheep and just around 3,600 losses due to "wild dogs" and foxes. That's a mere 0.01%... Which is barely even visible on a pie chart Yet millions of tax payer dollars go to dog/dingo murderers and overseas manufacturers of environmentally hazardous poisons.
Harsh Fact: Guard animals DONT work and i will sight multiple examples of all the animals you stated not woking! As for me being out of business.. bugger that for a joke..You are looking at the big picture! look at it over a small area! individual farm! farmers loosing over 60 head per week! If i can ease his suffering. what cost should that have placed on it!
ble. Guard animals have been used successfully for thousands of years across the world. A Queensland farmer recently told the media of his amazement with the success he had with Maremma dogs. Farmers need to become more responsible and not just hire money-hungry killers to temporarily delay their problems. They've been doing the latter since farming first arrived to AU and what has it led to? Depredation by feral dogs continuing, wild dingoes nearing extinction maybe?
Shoot the bloody thing! wild dogs cause hundreds of thousands to be lost from the aussie economy each year. fair enough this fella getting a feed in the camp ground but what happens when he cant get it there! he turns to other alrternatives! normally livestock!
I have worked as a wild dog controler! if you get the oppertunity to drive 1 in them do so!
bigbenno1: There's no need for that when guard animals such as llamas, donkeys and Maremma dogs do a fine and cost-efficient job at protecting livestock. But then you'd be out of business, right? Vastly more money is lost to "wild dog control programs" than livestock depredation. It makes more sense to use guard animals and compensate farmers for remaining losses.. or let them accept the losses like any other business would. I don't see fruit growers calling for a mass-culling of birds.
"Just my first video, a test really. This is of a wild homeless dog/dingo that lives in the bush near where I live." How many babies did you have to feed him to get him so submissive? By all the accounts I've heard about Dingoes you should be bones and dust by now.
Sticks & stones...Don't you think that removing FERAL DOGS from the enviroment before they breed with pure dingos is a good thing? I do and thats why i will shoot a FERAL DOG on sight. What are YOU doing about FERAL DOGS? I will go back under my bridge now.
I think removing humans from the environment before they breed with anything is a good thing, but I have enough decency and respect for life not to go around shooting them. BTW, I doubt you even have a gun, I don't think they will sell them to children... of course with your moral prerogatives you probably stole one. I think under bridges is a good place for trolls
Feral dogs actually very rarely interbreed with dingoes(except where baiting occurs)due to reproductive biology and behavioural differences, and most hybrids don't survive because they're not fit enough to live in the wild. What hybrids do survive are of such high dingo content that they perform the same role in the ecosystem as pure dingoes and should arguably be treated like pure dingoes. Of course that doesn't stop rednecks from using the couple dog genes as an excuse for mass-murdering them.
How about you visit a slaughter house and see how humans kill... or a feed lot and witness some torment that would have made Hitler hard... then visit a few huge grocery outlets to see what people throw away into their dumpsters at night. Point the finger if you like, there will be three fingers pointing back at you. Perhapse these sheep are seen as overgrazing the land... and NATURE herself is trying to defend against them with the only tool she has!
If it's a wild dog,or dingo, most of them actually don't mind people. I'm suprised it even came close o a populated area since, like wolves, they tend to try and stay away from humans. It's ashame that their going to hunt them down now since they cause no harm. It's quite pathetic how easily humans find harmless things a threat.-.-
This dingo or hybrid lost most of her natural fear of people because of food hand-outs.
Dingoes actually are wolves; A relatively small southern subspecies related to Indian wolves. The government is trying to give them the same classification as domestic dogs so they lose any "conservation value". It makes mass-murdering them an easier task.
He looks timid but also intersted in you with enough trust to give you a play bow. With the culling I bet you can convince that pretty pup to move in with you or to find him a home. If I can get an adult feral cat to become a spoiled "I only eat if it you just opened it" attituide then I'm sure that handsome hybrid can adjust to a safe life as well (-:
Yes Its a half breed, I think between a dingo and something else. There are a few of these dogs that hang around in the bush land. I thought the dog was friendly enough but also very scared and aware of people. But apperently these dogs have been a threat to some people walking and the council is now on a hunt to cull them :( I find it quite sad really as I didnt think it was a threat at all, only looking for food.... But anyway, what can you do..?
Not a bush dog...That's black DINGO.
