It depends upon what you understand by the term "desert". Dingoes do not live in sandy deserts. They live almost everywhere, including semi-arid areas of Australia, where spinifex grass or scrubland is plentiful, and where there is a permanent water supply, even if they have to dig to reach it. Where there is any type of vegetation, there is also animal life. Dingoes are opportunistic feeders, eating any prey that is available, and also carrion. They have a short coat with an undercoat that protects them from both the daytime desert heat and the night-time desert cold. They tend to live in areas where there are rocks and caves for shelter.

Dingoes do not eat Tasmanian devils. There are no dingoes on the Australian island of Tasmania, and there are no Tasmanian devils remaining on the Australian mainland.
