The British and everybody else whose pet or farm dogs goes wild. After
a few generations the dogs start to look alike and develop a shared
feral dog look. They're a big problem. The dingos are generally not.
They don't go after cattle, horses and farm dogs.

No, just the ones that humans introduced here. Dingos have earned
residency rights after 35,000 (or something) years. More so than me
after 12 years.

The big debate here is whether to use poison or guns. I absolutely
hate it, but I see no alternative. I don't think socialising them and
turning them into pets or farm dogs is possible. Otherwise that would
be best.
