Where does the Polynesian wolf live?

The Polynesian Wolf is another alias of The Southeast Asian Wolf, Asian Wolf, Dingo, Australian Dingo; they are all general terms referring to Asian wolves. [Canis Lupus family]

The debate is not if the wolves in Polynesia - Asia Pacific are wolves, the debate is when are they defined as dogs, since the difference between a dog and a wolf is that one is domesticated by humans, and one is feral breeding in the wild. Polynesian domestication methods of wolves in Pre-History most likely allowed and even encouraged feral instincts.

Asian Pacifican cultures very often domesticates these animals, so the term at some point becomes "Wolf Dog" because they are still wolves.

Do dingoes jump?

yes Australian dingos are very good swimmers

Yes, I know because I had a dingo as a pet from 1944 to 1954. I was seven when my family moved to a farmhouse just outside of La Port, IN. My parents said we now had room to have a dog.

It seems that a solder had brought the company mascot home from Australia on his furlough and left it with his wife and baby when he returned to duty. It was too much for her to take care of and I got it. She was a dingo her name was Fleasy when I got her but I changed it to Lassy. I loved that animal very much. And she could swim.
