Doggone dingo

The dingo is, I would argue, the most intelligent dog in the world. Far more intelligent than the sheep cockies who’ve unsuccessfully tried to exterminate it for the last two hundred years.
All they have suceeded in doing is cause the dingo to breed with domestic dogs, giving them the smarts of the dingo and the domestic dog, giving the dingo the ability to breed twice as fast. So naturally the sheep cockie is losing to the dingo. Right whack!
Despite the spectacular failures of the past, the sheep cockie is persisting with the same failed strategies. I saw in the paper where some clown has paid well over $300,000 to build a dingo proof fence. Mug! That was the first strategy which failed! They are continuing to lay baits which kill more of their working dogs than dingoes! Real bright!
The fact is, the bulk of Australia isn’t suited to sheep. So, regardless of what the Chinese want us to do, we should remove sheep from the unsuitable parts of Australia.
