When are people going to leave the dingoes alone to live on their island for goodness sake.

When I was 4 years old 54 years ago my dad took me out with him to check the dingo traps in Duaringa QLD, we came across a whole herd of cows that the dingos had played with by ripping there stomachs open there intestines had spread out across the bush and they were still moaning

No touchy, dingos.
