Why were wild dogs introduced to Australia?

Answer 1

Brumbies? We can't say exactly, but according to some Australians there are too many. Culling is happening, shooting the horses from helicopters, which some believe isn't altogether humane. Why culling is essential is uncertain, but we do the same to dingos and to our national symbol, the kangaroo. This is possibly because these creatures get between our cattle and their grazing land and our farmlands, which we have so carefully cleared since settlement in order to provide meat, wool, and grain.

Answer 2

Wild dogs, commonly known as dingoes, were introduced to Australia when the Aborigines came. The Aborigines used the dingoes to help with hunting.

Feral dogs, which are quite different, came with Europeans. They were used as pets and for hunting, and some were released either deliberately or accidentally into the wild where they bred.

This is the dingo. However, it is not truly native to Australia, as it was brought to the continent by the aboriginal people thousands of years ago. Australia has no truly native dogs, meaning there are no canine species that originated here.
