The Dingo Debate explores the intriguing and relatively unknown
story of Australia's most controversial animal - the dingo.
Throughout its existence, the dingo has been shaped by its
interactions with human societies. With this as a central theme,
the book traces the story of the dingo from its beginnings as a
semi-domesticated wild dog in South-east Asia, to its current
status as a wild Australian native animal under threat of
extinction. It describes how dingoes made their way to Australia,
their subsequent relationship with Indigenous Australians, their
successful adaption to the Australian landscape and their constant
battle against the agricultural industry. During these events, the
dingo has demonstrated an unparalleled intelligence and adaptable
nature seen in few species. The book concludes with a discussion of
what the future of the dingo in Australia might look like, what we
can learn from our past relationship with dingoes and how this can
help to allow a peaceful co-existence. The Dingo Debate reveals the
real dingo beneath the popular stereotypes, providing an account of
the dingo's behaviour, ecology, impacts and management according to
scientific and scholarly evidence rather than hearsay. This book
will appeal to anyone with an interest in Australian natural
history, wild canids, and the relationship between humans and
carnivores.
