The Dingo Debate
Author: Bradley Smith
Publisher: CSIRO PUBLISHING
ISBN: 1486300308
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
The Dingo Debate explores the intriguing and relatively unknown story of Australia’s most controversial animal – the dingo. Throughout its existence, the dingo has been shaped by its interactions with human societies. With this as a central theme, the book traces the story of the dingo from its beginnings as a semi-domesticated wild dog in South-east Asia, to its current status as a wild Australian native animal under threat of extinction. It describes how dingoes made their way to Australia, their subsequent relationship with Indigenous Australians, their successful adaption to the Australian landscape and their constant battle against the agricultural industry. During these events, the dingo has demonstrated an unparalleled intelligence and adaptable nature seen in few species. The book concludes with a discussion of what the future of the dingo in Australia might look like, what we can learn from our past relationship with dingoes and how this can help to allow a peaceful co-existence. The Dingo Debate reveals the real dingo beneath the popular stereotypes, providing an account of the dingo’s behaviour, ecology, impacts and management according to scientific and scholarly evidence rather than hearsay. This book will appeal to anyone with an interest in Australian natural history, wild canids, and the relationship between humans and carnivores.

Book Description
Grizzly -- The Beginning (Devil's Fury MC 8) May -- Everyone else sees a rough biker from the wrong side of town, but there's no one I'd rather be with. When I'm attacked by the town's golden boy, I see the Grizzly his club has named him for. I don't care that people whisper when we walk past. I love him, and I know I'll keep loving him until the day I die. Grizzly -- May deserves the best life can offer -- and a respectable guy. There's blood on my hands. I keep her at arm's length, but there's only one thing I want more than my club, more than my next breath -- and that's May. Wolf (Devil's Fury MC 9) Glory -- When I heard Devil's Fury was running an underground clinic for women like me I knew I had to be a part of it. What I didn't count on was falling for an alpha biker with a heart of gold, or turning to mush every time he holds my daughter. I won't let a killer stand in the way of my happily-ever-after. Wolf -- When my ex left I should have been broken-hearted, but one look at the angel who walks into Church and I know Glory's meant to be mine, and so is her adorable little girl. Glory can do better. I came back from the war broken. But I always get what I want, and I want Glory. I'll do whatever it takes to keep them safe, even if it means letting Glory see the darkness inside me. WARNING: Grizzly and Wolf's stories are both part of the Devil's Fury MC series and contains some violence, bad language, sensitive issues, and adult situations. Guaranteed happily-ever-after, a baby who will steal your heart, no cheating, and no cliffhanger.

The Dingo's Got My Baby

Publisher: Momentum

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 1439
Book Description
In 1980, nine-week-old Azaria Chamberlain was taken by a dingo from her family's tent near Uluru in Australia's remote Northern Territory. Her body was never found. In a terrible miscarriage of justice, her mother Lindy was wrongfully convicted of her daughter's murder and sentenced to life in prison. It was seven years before the conviction was overturned. This is the true story behind a tragedy whose echoes reverberated around the world. "This is the story of a little girl who lived, and breathed, and loved, and was loved. She was part of me. She grew within my body and when she died, part of me died, and nothing will ever alter that fact. This is her story, and mine." – Lindy Chamberlain-Creighton "Page after page demolishes the myth and fables that have been spun around a nation's obsession with the baby's disappearance." – The Sydney Morning Herald "What first struck me on meeting Lindy was her sense of humour and surprising lack of bitterness. Here is a woman who has been under such macabre and intense public scrutiny and yet through all the tabloid hysteria they haven't managed to capture the real Lindy at all. There are so many myths about Lindy and the Chamberlain case that have still not been dispelled and to read this book is to get closer to the truth behind the story that has continued to fascinate Australia for the past 24 years." –Miranda Otto, Actress, Lord of the Rings Trilogy Previously published as Through My Eyes in 2004.
