Dingo The dingo was probably introduced to Australia when the Aborigines arrived. Even though it is not a native animal, this member of the dog family has been a part of the Australian ecosystem for 3,000 to 4,000 years.

Some of these dogs were trained by the Aborigines to be hunting dogs, and on cold nights they would be used as a "living blanket" on cold nights. Dingoes are medium in size and their fur is a yellowish-tan color but it ...
