DNA studies on dingoes
      #300051 - 04/05/17 03:31 PM

Show that what we see as "non pure" are actually just about pure Dingoes.
I read up on it in either a Parks Vic or a DELWP brochure a month ago.

This B+T shows the dingo head and shape yet has the sheep dog points.
I saw this dog trotting up the creek last week,no rifle.
They are about the place licking new calf shit in the paddocks atm.

My own dogs love that fresh yellow custard too and i am always yelling " get the fuck out of that you cunt"

Plenty of deer browsing sign in the background too.

Always have understood the kelpie type colourings to be found in pure dingoes. Not commonly but I have shot a few marked like this. Also see a few black ones.

Looks like German Shepherd genes to me.

I distrust Victorian National Parks with their protectionist attitudes to dingoes. I would think they might colour 'scientific' studies with their attitudes.

In SA, shoot dingoes on sight.

Seen more than a few dingoes with a lot of German Shepherd DNA in them. Seen pure white ones. Pure black ones. The most common yellowish ones. Read an article once, which claimed it is increasingly hard to find any dingoes without some dog DNA in them.

Don't know. Not an expert.

I think you blokes are more than likely to be reacting to the colour, IE: dark with tan points.
The dog has no physical resemblance to a GS at all and like most around here they have an almost Kelpie (Aus sheepdog) look about them. Even the pure yellow ones have the same body characteristics.
Now if the dog was a pure yellow dog with that shape you wouldn`t even mention the GS name at all.

There is a big yellow dog hanging on the fence just up the road from here. I saw him fresh as but was too lazy to scalp him for the $120 bucks..Hes dry now and maggot eaten out and still worth $120 ha ha..
Anyway he is yellow as and the spitting image of the dog in the pic above.

The lead dog in the pics above of the pair is another black with tan points..he isnt a GS hybrid.

It's very difficult to confirm whether a dog is a dingo or not in the field. The colour variation is not a reliable indicator. Skull size and the ear canal ( much larger on dingo) can help to identify them. National studies show that there is just about nothing on the Australian East Coast that is even approaching pure dingo. Even in hybrid dogs where there is less than 50% dingo purity they will still look like dingoes due to the dominance of the gene. I was involved in a study ( a fair percentage of my business is soft catch trapping) in the Cairns/ Aloomba basin a few years back with CSIRO which found a very low purity level up this way. Can't see Victorian dogs having higher purity given proximity to domestic dogs over the years.

When they are mixed breeds, a mixture is what you get. Still hold for GS cross with perhaps Dingo dominance.

The latest on it headed my original post as per below gwh.
I have looked for the source with no luck so far. I think I read it in one of the local Gov Dept mail outs that`s gone into the wood stove.

G'Day Fella's,

Gryphon, when I first seen this thread, I thought it was about "our" politicians.
Same-Same really!
