|  DINGO
From: The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition | Date: 2007
dingo , wild dog ( Canis lupus dingo ) of Australia, believed to have been introduced thousands of years ago from SE Asia by the aboriginal settlers of that continent; currently regarded as a subspecies of the gray wolf . The only large carnivorous mammal found in Australia by the first European colonists, it stands about 24 in. (61 cm) high at the shoulder and has large, erect ears, a wolflike head, and rather long legs. It is usually yellowish red in color, with white markings on the underside, feet, and tip of tail. The dingo mates once a year and has a litter of up to eight pups. In the wild state it howls rather than barks, is nocturnal in its hunting habits, and usually travels in small groups. Although most often its quarry is small animals, the dingo's predation on livestock has caused serious economic loss in some areas of the continent. It has often been kept as a pet by the aborigines and used by them in hunting. The dingo is classified in the phylum Chordata , subphylum Vertebrata, class Mammalia, order Carnivora, family Canidae.
DINGO
From: The School Of Hard Knocks & Reality, Everyday Edition | Date: 2009 (ongoing) Currently, Dingoes cover the 4 points of the compass and it is believed they were introduced in not only aiding Belgium monks in product testing, but more importantly, keeping the Web Ellis Cup, dishes, plates, cutlery & crockery from the clutches of evil i.e. others with designs on their game being called football. These people can be easily identified as owning degrees in hair care products and are better suited to the pursuit of competition javelin catching.
By and large, the Dingoes are carnivorous creatures of habit, with vegetarian leanings as witnessed by the copious, and public, consumption of hop, barley & malt products. Dingoes can range in height from 3 feet to 6 feet 6 inches - regardless if they are standing up or lying down.
Dingoes are nocturnally camouflaged with a black coat and distinctive red markings and can be found hunting (usually in small packs) within its natural environs. These are commonly called bars, pubs, dives or locales dispensing (very) cheap alcohol. Mating is almost unheard of, due to various states of intoxication, inebration & social miscreancy. Should some claim to have “got lucky” (it’s never lucky when culling the weak from the herd), they are banished from the family of Dingoes for (a) obviously lying and (b) fear of spreading the near fatal “domestication” virus.
Dingoes are usually kept as somewhat domesticated pets and Postal employee chasers by their conquering spousal units, who are predominantly the owner, breeder and trainers. Dingoes are usually allowed public interaction (primarily on weekend afternoons) with other similarly domestically servituded pack animals, BUT for periods no longer than 40 minutes at a time (with a small rest in between). This activity is to allow, said spousal units, an avenue to seek interaction with likeminded spousal units and serve the purpose of reducing and/or eliminating dingoes from damaging the furniture, soiling the carpet or abusing electronic media devices. During these periods, said spousal units have been known to seek advice, from fellow spousal units on house training the dingo - all be it with varying degrees of results.
