That little bloke is a dingo. These are native to Australia. They have also been almost hunted into extinction, or crossbred with feral dogs, thus reducing the 'pure bloodline' we should be working to protect.
Australia has an appalling record when it comes to the extinction of fauna and flora.
The current bushfire season which extends back as far as October in New South Wales, and has afflicted every state and territory, has seen the certain extinction of hundreds more species of creatures and plants.
The current government is in denial, held to ransom by a small coterie of extreme right wing climate deniers.
I think I just wanted to give a shout out to a beautiful fellow resident of the oldest continent - a dingo.
