They invariably do, when something like this occurs.

No, you aren't supposed to feed them. Yes, there are signs.

For this very reason.


No one was feeding them. They were jogging.



Its because other people have fed them and now they expect food from people.

the facts are herb Dingoes are not your every day dog....and Mr bloody Average should know that...


'Every day' feral dogs in packs are probably a lot more dangerous.

they are a wild animal...and it is the feeding of them that brings them into contact with humans..


Not always. They'll go for small children as a food source just like some of our dangerous breed of dogs do.

I am sure your terrifying experience is memorable but honestly you cannot compare the two


Wrong.

Anyone looking weak, small, injured, alone, helpless, will attract canines as a pack looking for a likely meal.

Even cowardly coyotes will work up the courage to start nipping at you with increasing ferocity if you happen to be trapped in the wilderness by an upturned car or beach-buggy, or whatever. I've seen the doco.

Wrong.

It's more like people leaving their half-eaten stuff on the beach or the bins.

But!

The dingoes that attacked these two adults knew damn well they weren't jogging through the bush to feed them.

They were seen as ... isolated away from other human beans, and running as though they were in fearful retreat from these predators ... and this is what encouraged them to become opportunist hunters looking for a protein diet with the assistance of these two women.

The stupidity of people never ceases to amaze me. Swim in shark-infested waters. Go wandering in forests inhabited by dangerous bears. Jog through bushland teaming with hungry dingoes. Go walking through Muslim suburbs ...

Too numerous to mention here.

I've got news for you.

My GP actually told me to STOP checking my medical conditions on the Internet because it was leaving me more knowledgeable than him for what I go to see him about.

True story.

So I now pretend I haven't a clue about anything medical until he tells me about it.

He knows I'm patronising him, and that the Internet is the Elephant in the Room.

They've been at it for a long time now....

Did this happen before or after the native title occupants got hold of it... might be a conspiracy there...

People do feed them. It's caused at least one fatal attack before, and was probably a factor in this one as well.

Not necessarily the case that THEY had food, but the dingoes don't know that...   Sad
