  • People, dancing, prancing,flying.....I'm sorry, I don't know how this video helps the plight of the dingo....if I was starving I wonder if I could wait until MAYBE......someone..... goes to this video who has some power to change things in government. I'm sorry but I think the end result will be what I believe the government wants and that is that the dingoes all die off on Fraser Island without it looking like the government gave a directive to kill them, because tourism takes priority.

  • @postable100 Dear friend, the video show the community involved , the people power, the heritage of this Country..We all know this Government doesn't care a bit about the dingoes, just looking for a easy dollars....the Tourism dollars.....

    but is the beginning for "artforearth" just wait a bit... The human spirit is stronger than anything that can happen to it.

    We will save the Fraser Island Dingoes..

see all

  • Thank you Jorje this was one of the best days of my life. sadly due to the floods and bad weather we had to postpone and didnt get the usual massive crowds but it was still a success. i will never forget the speech you made afterwards nor the flight in the skydive plane! Can't wait to see the result of your next mission!

  • To Postable100, I'd just like you to know that Kate Jones resigned as Minister for the environment. Some dingo rangers have been removed off Fraser Island. Hazing has been stopped. Slowly, very slowly from little things, big things grow. With the chance of Labor losing the next election the LNP Party will help to save the FI Dingo. Artforearth has been very supportive in getting the information out there to the public.

  • Jones & her minder Bligh should be forced to take a long walk off a short pier for what they've done to Ms Parkhurst, and that's putting it politely. It's tipical of the actions of the Bligh dictatorship, they are nothing more than scum who will use their power & corruption to crucify anyone that challenges their stupidity.

    If feeding starving native animals is such a hideous crime maybe it's time we stopped feeding the introduced parasitic species called politicians....

  • Thankyou Jorge for a wonderful presentation of bringing the plight of the dingo to a worldwide audience. Since the raid on Jennifer's home more public have become aware of this Vanishing Icon and the struggle it has to survive. The dingo population seems to be diminishing too quickly for natural attrition. Something is wrong. Hopefully the Govt can resolve this by establishing there is enough food for the dingo to live as evidence shows in recent photographs some dingoes do look emaciated.

  • The dingoes on Fraser Island are just one of only a couple of dingo populations that are still pure, that is not mixed with dogs. The Fraser Island dingoes are dying off because of Queensland mismanagement through culling and starvation. Dingoes are going extinct before our very eyes.
