Australia's only wild dog is the dingo. The dingo is not truly native, as it did not originate on the continent like the hundreds of marsupial species did, but it has been in Australia for thousands of years. It was originally brought with the Aboriginal people between 4000 and 6000 years ago, and has come to be regarded as a native Australian animal. it is Australia's largest native carnivorous mammal.
