Traditional land owners fight to save dingos

Australian Traditional land owners are outraged by the inhumane treatment of the Australian dingo and are lobbying for the Federal and State Governments to protect this mammal.

Dingo Culture is a non-for-profit Aboriginal organisation run by traditional land owners of the Jirrbal land.

Dingos are the only Australian mammal who are not protected under the Australian Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999  in every state in Australia, with the exception of the Northern Territory

The Australian government are killing the dingos with inhumane methods, such as the lethal 1080 baiting.
