Didn't realise that it was such a problem John, that old boy certainly earns his money.

What is the source of these wild dogs?

I know the red fox is also an issue in Australia, but looking at the videos they seem to be feral domestic dogs.

Do people also not attempt to lamp these dogs like we do lamping foxes?

Virtually impossible mate,think cunning then multiply it 1000 times

Many of the dingo bloodlines have been corrupted by hunting dogs and farm dogs...quite a few revert back to looking like the Samoyed root stock....no matter they are fkn killers.

I last shot one a lot of years ago,you hear them howling at night or late arvo just like wolves its actually a good sound to hear believe or not. My last one was a bitch of 70 lbs with a bob tail,gingery yellow and white with a massive front end tapering to a small arse end....a real killer.

In Victoria its mountainous bush country that they thrive in and all the Gov doggers just cant keep up.

Interesting article mate thanks for sharing. Am I right in thinking that went out on the 7.30pm news? If so can you imagine anything like that being shown here in blighty with a trapped dog and being shot?! It'd be carnage (and never happen!!)

Yes certain elements of UK society have gone soft and are totally out of touch with reality I'm afraid!!
