    in a pack, and seems to kill for the sake of killing.

    The dingoes are menace because they prey on sheep. They hunt the sheep by night.
    They run silently through the grass and drive the sheep into a cul-de-sac. Now that the
    sheep are trapped, they are easy prey. Being expert killers, the dingoes aim at their
    throats. The Australian lose lunge sums of money each year on their sheep.

    It is considered fair game to kill this wild dogs by shooting them, trapping them, or by
    baiting them with poisoned meat. Hire wire fences surround thousands of a cres of
    sheep grazing land. These fences keep the wild dingoes away from sheep.

    If caught when puppies’ dingoes can be tarred. They can be trained to be loyal and
    faithful companions. Sometimes the tarred dingoes help guard their masters, sheep

    the welfare of my family and the residents in my neighborhood is my top priority.
