The dingo is a free-roaming wild dog unique to Australia, mainly found in the outback.
Its original ancestors are thought to have arrived with one of the waves of human settlement thousands of years ago.
A dingo's natural habitat can range from deserts to grasslands and on the verge of forests. They cannot be too far from water and they normally settle their homes in dens, deserted rabbit holes, and hollow logs. A dingo yelps and howls but does not bark.
