SAVE the DINGO would like to thank Nic Papalia for the following piece
Nic is the President of the
West Australian Dingo Association

Our top land predator - holding everything in the ecosystem in balance.

The 'Lion King' concept - as easy as that to understand the significance and importance of saving the dingo.

The ignorance and continual aerial baiting of 1080 not only kills the dingo but Raptors, reptiles and many secondary birds and animals. We should learn from the lesson where the wolves were exterminated in Canada, Mexico, Japan and Scotland - all these countries have now reintroduced the wolf to protect and keep everything in equilibrium. Australian Politicians condem the Japanese for killing whales but hypocritically condone the extermination of our dingo!

Last November Minister Bob Debus authorised the aerial bait drop of 1080 inside the Kosciosko National Park where the last bastion of round 100 Alpine Dingoes lived in what was supposed to be a sanctuary - many of them are now dead from 1080 baiting - they were tagged!

Minister for PRIMARY INDUSTRIES Ian Macdonald has authorised the entire state of NSW to be baited with 1080 and no-one blinks an eye lid! Why??

In WA the state has four aerial bait drops a year which cost 18 million dollars dropping 1080 onto Aboriginal lands and wilderness areas. ALL our State Parks and supposed Sancutaries in Australia are poisoned with 1080! Pasturalists can kill animals on their property but the state parks are ALL Australians - they are our treasures and dont belong to a bunch of surrounding farmers!

The dingo is to be recognised internationally as 'heritage listed'.

The dingo is also recognised internationally as endangered.

It has been incredibly difficult to get this information to the vast majority of Australians as the media has not delivered the information to them and would rather it appear focus on more trivial points than this major catastrophe.

Incorrect information has been given to justify 1080 stating it is from a natural pea plant - there is NOTHING natural about 1080 - it is man made in a laboratory where the sense of taste and smell are removed and the toxin levels magnified which create a super toxin that has no antidote and kills everything, working on metabolism. One teaspoon will kill 100 humans, there is no way of containing a bait, if a raptor drops a bait in a yard and a child eats this poison it will die!

Wake up Australians!
