It is well known that the dingo has an influential effect on all parts of the food chain.
Dingoes are social predators.
Top level predators have a common ecological role as regulators at the top of their food chains, with no natural predators of their own. These predators limit population eruptions of their prey, which benefits plant and other small animal communities.
"Dingoes are experiencing such large population declines, which not only harms them but also the species that depend on their ecological services".
Without dingoes, small mammal species, such as bilbies, get eaten away by introduced animals.
There is no place in Australia where dingo populations have not been controlled by humans for such a long time.
It's long overdue to utilise Guardian Animals to help with predation of livestock.
