Hi all
Here are a heap of photos that I haven’t shared before of a young male that roams the hillsides alone.
He is such a nice dingo 😍

Young males or lower-ranking dingoes are often kicked out of their packs or choose to leave.
Because they are alone, solitary dingoes usually hunt smaller prey like rabbits, rodents, and lizards. They avoid large kangaroos, which require a full pack to hunt safely but in saying that I have watched this younger male chase many a kangaroo..

One day whilst sitting and watching this dingo I was amazed at what happened. I will try to explain it best I can 🤪
I was sitting and watching the young male dingo in this post who also was sitting ( he was lying down actually). There was a mob of kangaroos not too far away. Two of the young male roos where play fighting and grunting like the do. The dingo hearing all of this and having heard all of this before was almost asleep. A very young Joey was out of mums pouch and jumping around also ( so cute ).
The two male roos were carrying on making their grunting sounds when the mother kangaroo decided that her joey was getting a little too carried away bouncing around and a little too far away. Mum called her joey with such a quiet little knicker and WOW. The dingo knows that sound and knows what that sound means. The dingo was up and off in a flash. “ Holy cow” look at him go. He was off after the roos / joey 100 miles per hour and they went up and over the hill and gone. I didn’t see what came of the chase but the dingo knew!! There is no doubt in my mind that dingo knew exactly what that little knicker from mum meant. It meant Joey was out and about and WOW.
Such smart intelligent animals they are
They never cease to amaze me.

All images in this post are of the same young male dingo. Isn’t he lovely 😍
Thanks guys

When two male dingoes from different family groups cross paths.
In this case it only resulted in intense posturing, no doubt these two have crossed paths before. The dingoes will typically initiate a tense standoff with raised hackles and lock gazes to gauge each others strengths. If the intruder refuses to to submit and retreat a physical altercation will ensure and in this case the tan dingo being the intruder did in fact submit and retreat. The black and white dingo made sure that the tan dingo went on his way 🐕❤️🇦🇺

Hi all
Please read the captions on all the images in this post.

The first two images were taken in the winter of 2023 ,they are just an example.
I have posted a heap more images of the black and white dingo that I posted about yesterday for people to have a better look at him.
If this black and white dingo was your typical Sandy / tan colour then not half as many people would carry on re “ not a dingo” on this page.
It really is ignorant…
Get with the times 👍🏻
This posted is not directed at those who support our dingoes and believe that they do indeed come in different coat colours just the ignorant people that refuse to believe.
Thanks guys
🐕❤️🇦🇺

Hi all
I met this gorgeous dingo today for the first time. He was spying on me as I walked by.
So adorable 🥰

More to come 🙂

Hi all
Where we hike.
The rangers have spoken to us on more than one occasion, and they have said to us, firstly, how much they like the dingoes. Secondly, that the dingoes in this area, no matter the coat colour are indeed dingoes. Over time over 200 individual dingoes in this particular area where we hike have been DNA tested and they have all tested to be pure. Now, these are rangers that manage a national park, I do not think that rangers would want any wild dogs roaming their national parks. These are dingoes hence why they are respected and left alone. True story !!
Rangers gladly share their knowledge about the dingoes in this area and yes they are very knowledgeable re all things dingo in these areas.

No amount of nastiness changes the truth.
So to those spewing vile comments about the images that I share , also telling us to harm ourselves ( yes there has been comments suggesting such things ) you expose only your cruelty and are not doing the anti dingo movement any favours, fools !
I have blocked a few morons from the page today , well quite a lot of morons actually 🤦🏻‍♂️

Also again we have DNA tested two dingoes ourselves and both samples came back as being 99.99 % pure. One was a white with ginger spots and the other was Sable in colour.
So to all the dingo haters nothing is going to change on this page so stay strapped in for more dingo love 🐕❤️🇦🇺
📸 these images of dingoes were taken last week and have not been shared before 🙂
Thanks to all those that love the images and love the dingoes, you are the majority 🙂

Hi all
She has to be one of the prettiest dingoes I have ever seen / met.
She is just adorable 🥰
I have met this girl three times now and everytime she has howled for me, sung for me ☺️
Did you know that..
Dingoes do not bark like domestic dogs; instead, they communicate through a distinctive melodic howl often referred to as "singing." They use these vocalizations to find pack members, establish territory, and coordinate with one another over long distances.
Their howls are complex, modulating pitches that can carry up to 10 kilometres. When multiple dingoes howl together, they harmonise in a chorus to make the pack sound larger.
Love this girl 😍
Love the Dingoes 🐕❤️🇦🇺

Hi all
Two days ago when we set off our hike we weren’t 20 minutes into the hike when Ian hand signalled me to stop ✋🏻. He whispered “pigs”
It was still quite dark so I put the camera in auto and hoped for the best re images quality.
Surprisingly the images came out ok, not fantastic but you can make the pigs out.
The pregnant pig ( well she certainly looked pregnant ) looked up at us and gave a little grunt / snort sound and at first couldn’t work us out as it was a bit dark then “grunt grunt” and they took off.
We should have stayed hidden until the sun came up a bit more and maybe even a few dingoes may have come on the scene because about 5 minutes after the pigs ran off we saw three dingoes wander past not too far away.
We went up to see what they had been up to and took two pics ( see pics ) then later in the day after meeting up with Angela we found a pig skull so they are definitely out there.
Not often do we see pigs as they are very elusive but we have seen them before over the years.

Thanks guys

Hi all
I will call this post part 1 of 2 👍🏻
Now what happened in these images happened in less than two minutes.
I was having a break ,watching a few roos in the area when an Alpine Dingo appeared over the crest of the hill. He must of have breakfast on his mind because after a quick look at me his attention turned to the two roos that were closest to him and just like that he was off after them. It all happened so quick ,I wish I had of zoomed in a bit.
He chased the two Roos down the hill and into the small wetland area. The Roos escaped the chase and bounced off out of sight.
I’ve seen quite a few encounters in my time hiking where dingoes are off chasing roos and surprisingly the roos get away most of the time when being chased across the plains. The dingoes are smart and know that chasing the roos into wetlands or towards waterways ,into the creek ,into the reeds will slow them down significantly. That’s where I see most kills up here, in or besides a waterway of some kind, clever dingoes, thats what I have observed over time , very clever dingoes.
This particular dingo after the roos had escaped looked over at a few of the big bucks ( male roos ) that were just grazing away peacefully. Not a good idea I thought and luckily for the dingo he thought the same, turned and wandered off in the opposite direction. One swift kick from one of those big males could mean lights out for the dingo so off he went………
To be continued……

Hi all
What an amazing / awesome hike we had today up in the mountains.
Myself ,Ian and we met up with Angela a bit later on and off we went on yet another adventure up in the high country.
A bit overcast at times ,about 3 minutes of drizzle is all, pigs (big fat pigs 😱), skippy’s and of course our gorgeous Alpine dingoes.
I took a heap of images today ( not as many as some 🤦🏻‍♂️😀 ) so will do a few posts over the coming days.
Just such a beautiful part of the world. Wouldn’t want to be anywhere else 🙂🐕❤️🇦🇺
Thanks guys
