👋 A clarification on 00:55 - Wild dingoes and your pet ‘blue heeler’ are different - particularly in behaviour - but their genetics are much closer than we indicate here. Since European contact dingoes have crossbred with other dog breeds to form hybrids and some historical reports suggests the Aussie blue heeler might actually be one of them. If we take a look at the dingo ‘family tree’, genomic studies have revealed their origins can be traced to ancient breeds of domesticated dogs in Asia. They are much closer to domestic dogs than wolves genetically speaking. But as they’re largely free-living animals, don’t expect dingoes to behave like your typical canine companion.

@@gregmcb5305 My understanding is that the geneome sequencing for all dogs and wolves is incomplete. That is: there are significant gaps between various connections eg the grey wolf and the domestic dog> Which particular type of grey wlf gave rise to the domestic dog? Is that particular greay wolf extinct? The dingo is the same. I'm sorry: I find the conclusions you draw are only speculations...

There is a case where dingos actually did carry off a baby. The mom insisted that dingos took her baby but law enforcement accused her instead. The mom was convicted, served prison time and afterward a hiker discovered a baby blanket in a dingo den. It matched the missing baby's blanket. Further investigation showed that dingos had taken the baby.

I always thought the dingo eating a baby thing was an urban legend, but apparently a dingo really did eat a baby. And then the parents were wrongfully convicted and imprisoned for murder. That's heartbreaking! I mean, it's not the dingo's fault. They were camping in a remote area. It's not the parent's fault either, though. I mean, who would expect that to ever happen? Apparently, the dingo went inside the tent and got the baby. Damn, that's tragic. :( If a wild animal ate my baby and then I was wrongfully imprisoned, I would have a whole entire nervous breakdown.

That dingo opening the gate reminds me of our last dog, Rocky, who was -- we were told -- a GSD x Kelpie, but he had the same colouring and similar shape as a dingo. He'd open our back sliding door with no real difficulties...he'd hop up on his back legs, lift the lock with his nose, and then use his snout to push the heavy door across. It was very handy because we didn't have to get up and let him out all the time but it would also get annoying, especially in winter, lol.

I would probably say that a dingo is sort of roughly the size of something like a coyote and while it's not they're not that dangerous by themselves because of there limited size they can be sometimes be aggressive and they do attack in packs they are not something which actually kills a lot of people.A common domestic dog particularly if its fairly large is definitely far more likely to kill somebody then what dingos are.

My first dog was a Dingo-Spitz hybrid. A friend of the family was a captain of a freighter. He took her on board the ship with him but it didn't work out. We adopted her but NYC was no place for a Dingo mix. Skippy was always high-strung and very protective of the family, but aggressive with everyone else. Skip really behaved more Dingo-like than dog. She wound up biting too many visitors and had to be euthanized at age 10. Poor Skippy, she should have never been taken from her true home. She would have been much better served if she'd be allowed to stay in the Outback.

So, I've seen some Ann Jones videos before: really enjoyable. That said, two things Jones says in this video are questionable: 1) Dingoes are the only canines that can look over their shoulder. I haven't studied wolves, but I've raised a LOT of dogs, and...even the latest one currently looks over his shoulder at me -- usually when looking out a window, I talk too much about him. He has a "look of reproval" that is devastating. 2). I've ALSO seen a lot of my dogs use "tools" -- without persusasion -- but always for fun and games. The current, "look of reproval", dog likes to pick up one toy so that he can bat (or kind of play golf with) another toy, usually a ball. He also uses tools to play games: he uses a blanket to play hide and seek with himself, when we are too busy, "hiding" the ball and then uncovering it. I suppose it one is hindered by "bloke society" definitions and thinking (tools are ONLY for work or "problem solving") THEN one might think Ann Jones is correct. But she isn't.

9 years old (1988) - family bought a piece of acreage - 3 acres - dryish forested land near Tambourine Mountain near the Gold Coast Australia. No house - but we'd go down and spend the weekend camping. One day - a strange small dogo came to visit. It actually looked just like a dingo - but it was friendly. We kept it and took it back to Brisbane. He became my best friend. We'd go everywhere together. After a year or so - He became a bit aggressive to people he didn't know - nipping at strangers - and my parents had to get rid of him (which REALLY upset me at the time).

However, while the dingo cannot be domesticated, the Carolina Dog *can* be domesticated but is also just fine being feral.

Wait, what was the tool the dingo used to get out? It's mouth? Honestly asking. My family has had a lot of german shepherds and a couple of em over the years were extremely smart! My mom had to start using padlocks on the dog run & kennel bc one of em learned to open ever other type of latch/locking mechanism we tried, crazy smart dog! Then I had an unrelated GS in a different household when I became an adult, this dog would literally watch our every move to figure out how the gates, etc worked and as soon as we turn our back she'd go try to mimic what we'd done, 9/10x successfully I sure do miss those pups!

i have a “domestic” dog pack that occasionally has a pack mentality and, when they get to fighting, i have to get in and brake them up. i don’t go to the doctor for my injuries though i do take the dogs that need it to the vet. i am trying to rehome one of them but, i haven’t found anyone to take her that is trustworthy. i have changed the routine of the one who is always whooped and keep her with me so she is never alone with the rest of the pack. that has pretty much stopped all of the fighting. the last fight, i got bit very badly on the left wrist. had someone wrap it for me and headed to the vet with a severely wounded Streak. She had to stay there for a week. i think i could easily play within a pack of dingoes and keep the alpha position.

What about the Rikali (or water rat), quokkers on Rottnest Island -- or quolls - or Tasmanian Devils

had a 70% cross as probably my first dog was smart fast active and friendly to me my friends and most animals, but was also fast active and hostile to anyone creeping about aggressive to me or in anyway threatening to him. Wild dingo generally shy and no threat. but are intelligent and curious, you shouldnt feed wild ones can be friendly even when wild but they arnt, they are cunning will take an opportunity from you if it works for them or against you, anything they can get away with they will. they arnt overly big, dont have overly sized teeth but they are strong fast and those teeth are pin point sharp, also even if you see one or maybe even two you can be sure there are at least a few more watching

I use to raise Red/Blue Heelers cross,,, the absolute best. And crossing them the pups were all much larger than their parents. Super smart...great companions. NOT dangerous at all. One thing I have noticed in all of the video's on Dingoes is the failure to mention the strength of their jaws, the exaggerated jaw muscles. Mine were able to easily crush a tennis ball flat and break a stick about an inch or more in diameter easily.

Dogs of any breed can be dangerous :) There used to be a blue heeler in the next street that was allowed to roam. I walked down the sunny side of the street and it was laying there. It heard me, got up and growled at me. I 'bigged' myself up and tried to intimidate it and it just growled some more and slowly walked towards me, hunched up ready to attack. This was in the days before you could ring up the council and make a complaint. Years later I also had a German Shepherd do the same thing to me, and the council sent a Dog Control person out. I had a working line GSD myself at the time so I wasn't being paranoid about a 'nasty German Shepherd' I just wanted the council to come and get it and stop giving GSD's a bad name. p.s., my GSD took two, maybe three bites to destroy a tennis ball.

raised 3 dingoes over my time, the most recent was as pure as they come these days, were all dna tested. Biggest problem is their constant love and devotion to the pack ,of which YOU need to be dominant 24/7. Like training a cat, bloody useless. But just like my camels, once you bond it becomes the focus of your life.
