“A dingo got my babyyy” (with a thick Aussie accent) always came to mind when I seen this in Oz! lol But you know they wouldn’t have posted such signs unless it was true…

Yep, I think everyone I was with made the joke at least once. Glad we got to see a few of them running around, even though the weather sucked.

We just got from India where we did a safari in Ranthambore National Park to see a tiger…..alas we didn’t see one but funnily enough the guide/spotter pointed out a Dingo. Looked like a dog to me …. as an Aussie I didn’t even think there were Dingoes in India. Does anyone know if this is true?

I thought about a tiger safari in India too, but didn’t have the time. I’ve never heard dingos mentioned in relation to India, but maybe he was using the name you’d know to describe their own indigenous wild dog.
