These are the Wilkerr (dingoes) that we are studying in Big Desert-Wyperfeld (NW, Victoria).
Story by @EllaMareeAB @abc730.
Amazing footage from @Dr_DanielHunter.
We can protect Wilkerr AND livestock, science has demonstrated this.

This beautiful clownfish is endemic to the shallow reefs of north-west Australia. Juvies have three white stripes along their body, losing the two as they grow. 🧡
They were photographed from Darwin Harbour, where they live in small family groups amongst Bubble-tip Anemones! 🐟

In Italy, where fascism was invented, the most extreme government since 1945 has come to power. In Britain, where fascism is the unspoken, the most extreme government since 1945 has come to power. Spot the difference.

How beautiful is this Red-lined Flabellina! 💜🧚🏼
These incredible aeolid nudibranchs spend their days sliding along coral reefs feeding on athecate hydroids! 🌊
I was blown away when @LucynakWild spotted two at low-tide in Darwin, it was the first time we had seen them!

#SmallCarnivores make excellent sentinels of #GlobalChange. Our #perspective in #MammalReview highlights the benefits of thinking middle-out and not only top-down/bottom-up when it comes to monitoring and evaluating #EnvironmentalChange

By showing that dingoes influence eagles' diets we illustrate how pervasive apex predators effects on ecosystems can be. In the Strzelecki Desert, kangaroos and bearded dragons are more abundant and are consumed more by nesting eagles where dingoes are rare @alvesmjoel
Daniel Hunter retweeted
Dingoes have greater suppressive effect on foxes
than poisoning campaigns! Our surveys of dingo and fox activity in forests show that fox activity was greater in areas that were poison baited than unbaited areas where dingoes were common @dr_danielhunter publish.csiro.au/AM/AM21036

The amount Elon Musk just paid for Twitter ($44 billion) is nearly equal to Biden’s proposed climate budget ($44.9 billion), in case anyone's wondering how seriously we’re taking the climate crisis

Fact Check. DNA studies show there are practically no feral dogs or F1 dingo x dog hybrids living in the wild across Australia. Most wild canines are pure dingoes or carry predominately dingo ancestry. Stop spreading the wild dog myth tinyurl.com/3n69fcxn

The High Court has ruled that Julian #Assange can be extradited to the US. "How can it be fair, how can it be right, how can it be possible, to extradite Julian to the very country which plotted to kill him?" said Stella Moris. Mark this day as fascism casts off its disguises.

Letter-winged kites benefit from the presence of dingoes. @JoshLEEcology shows in the Strzelecki Desert, that kites congregate in areas where dingoes create a refuge for their key-prey, hopping mice. Dingoes facilitate high numbers of hopping mice by suppressing cats and foxes.

Cop26 ends in climate agreement despite India watering down coal theguardian.com/environment/… António Guterres, the UN secretary-general, also warned that more work is needed: “Our fragile planet is hanging by a thread. We are still knocking on the door of climate catastrophe.
