The classification of a dingo.
The dingo is a mammal and a mammal is a warm-blooded vertebrate animal of a class that is distinguished by the possession of hair or fur.


Habitat of a dingo.
Dingoes are from harsh deserts to lush rain forests. The highly adaptable dingo is found in every habitat and state of Australia except Tasmania. Dingoes favor edges of forests next to grasslands. In deserts access to drinking water determines where the animal can live.


Physical features
A dingo's body fur is short while the tail is quite bushy. Its dog-like appearance, with a relatively broad head and erect ears, makes the Dingo Australia's largest mammal carnivore. With canine teeth longer than those of a domestic dog the dingo's muzzle is also longer and tapered.


Food
Dingoes hunt alone or in big packs. They pursue small game such as rabbits, rodents, birds, and lizards. These dogs will eat fruits and plants as well.


Social behavior
While young males are often solitary and nomadic in nature, breeding adults often form a settled pack. However, in areas of the dingo's habitat with a widely spaced population, breeding pairs remain together, apart from others.


Predators of a dingo
Because of their large size and dominant nature of the dingo, they have no real predators within their natural environment, besides humans who are responsible for the destruction of the dingo's habitat, and the odd crocodile. Dingoes breed once a year, generally before August in the south and after August in the north.



Man & animal
While dingoes have the potential to be dangerous to humans, in reality, the incidence of attacks on humans is relatively rare. The risk of dangerous behavior is greatly increased in dingoes that have become habituated to humans through feeding or other encouragement.
