They are referring to a real-life case where an Australian woman was convicted of the murder of her infant daughter. She claimed that a dingo took her. The conviction was later overturned but the cause of death was never determined.

In Tropic Thunder Alpa Chino says I want to throw another shrimp on your barbie and sorry dingo ate your baby is this something an Australian would say?

it is playing to the stereotype of a 'typical australian' there was a series of TV ads trying to popularise Australia starring Paul (Crocodile Dundee) Hogan, which finished with him throwing another 'shrimp on the barbie' as the viewer of the ad would need something to eat when they got there. And 'dingo ate my baby' is referring to the well known case of Lindy Chamberlain, a woman who was tried and convicted of killing her child when she claimed a dingo (wild dog) ran off with it.

Do dingos eat baby dingos?

No, dingoes are very kind to human beings. A lot of Australian tribes even keep them as pets. They would rather prefer eating kangaroos or rabbits as a meal. Although "a dingo ate your baby!" is funny, it has yet to be actually proven. There have been cases where dingos have picked up babies and there was a recorded case where a wild dog attacked a 9 year old boy who sustained injuries he later died from. Also, in the famous case of "A dingo ate my baby" clothing worn by the baby in mention was find near a dingo lair, and the individuals imprisoned for the death of the baby were released. It is quite possible for a dingo to take a child and to cause injuries that could cause death, but it's arguable as to whether there is any more or less risk as you would have with any other dog.
