Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. Dingoes have been the scapegoat for sheep farmers' financial struggles since the early colonial years. Governments have responded with bounties for killing dingoes, baiting programs, and thousands of kilometres of fences. The livestock industry claims dingoes are not genuine native animals, just feral domestic dogs. Dangerous interactions with tourists at campsites keep negative stories about dingoes in the news.But the tide is turning. Science shows there's little interbreeding with domestic dogs, and that dingoes play an integral role in maintaining ecological balance, including by keeping kangaroos and wild pigs and goats in check. Now dingo numbers are perilously low in many areas. Will Australia be willing to protect the dingo before it's too late? Roland Breckwoldt unravels the myths and prejudices to tell the true story of an Australian icon. 'The dingo's journey from cultural icon to outlaw and back again, is beautifully told' - Justine Philip'A captivating account of the Australian dingo' - Andrew Stoeckel 'A fascinating insight into an often-misunderstood Australian icon.' - David Lindenmayer 'Dingo is a lens with which to examine and understand the damage that's occurred to Australia's environment and culture since European colonisation, and a call for a brighter, more sustainable future.' - Euan G. Ritchie'Reveals the fascinating history of our unfolding love-hate relationship with the dingo' - Ian J. McNiven 'A must-read for anyone concerned with the future of dingoes in Australia' - George Wilson 'A provocative journey into the controversies and paradoxes that surround the dingo.' - Mike Letnic Australia's dingoes are increasingly under threat of extinction after two centuries of mythmaking, bounties and poisoning. This is the real story of the dingo. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.…
